For EU Wine Importers
Diversify Your Wine Portfolio with Moldovan Wines
Moldova delivers quality, traceability, and European proximity that New World origins cannot match at the price point. Cima Group connects you directly with verified wineries — no brokers, no opacity.
Why source from Moldova
The Importer Advantage
Moldovan wines offer a compelling proposition for EU importers: established wine heritage, competitive farm-gate pricing, and a supply route that sits entirely within Europe's eastern neighbourhood.
Verified Winery Network
Every winery on the platform has been reviewed for production capacity, quality documentation, and export capability. You access confirmed supply — not a cold contact list.
Competitive Direct Pricing
Direct winery relationships eliminate broker layers. Compare offers from verified producers and negotiate terms that reflect actual production costs — not inflated intermediary prices.
Reliable Annual Supply
Plan your range with confidence. Cima Group supports multi-season supply relationships, giving your buying programme stable volume commitments across consecutive vintages.
European Proximity Advantage
Moldova borders Romania and Ukraine, placing it firmly within Europe's eastern neighbourhood. Shorter transit times, lower logistics costs, and simpler documentation than intercontinental origins.
What we source
Moldovan Wine Categories
Moldova produces across the full spectrum of wine styles — from full-bodied reds grown in its continental climate to crisp whites, elegant rosés, and certified organic cuvées.

- International: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir
- Available: bulk, bottle, private label
White Wines
Crisp, aromatic whites produced from Moldova's cooler northern vineyards. Fetească Albă and Fetească Regală offer distinctive character; Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc serve mainstream demand.
- Indigenous: Fetească Albă, Fetească Regală, Aligoté
- International: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling

Rosé Wines
Light and fruit-forward rosés at accessible price points, increasingly attractive to the Northern European summer on-trade and retail. Produced primarily from red varieties by short maceration.

- Styles: red, white, rosé, pétillant naturel
- Strong positioning for independent retail and on-trade
