Deschidem Vinul Romanesc<\/strong>, the unique program initiated by Carrefour Romania<\/strong>, continues its mission to promote Romanian wine, especially on Romania’s National Day, and opens the festive season with local wine and sparkling wine. Over 200 passengers arriving today in the country from Venice Treviso raised a glass of wine in honor of the country during the flight, before reaching their native lands, discovering the story of Romanian wine alongside Marinela Ardelean, the program’s Ambassador.<\/strong> Additionally, other celebrities served those on board with local varieties, celebrating this important day at a high altitude. Once at Henri Coanda International Airport, Romanians and tourists were greeted in the arrivals area by a sommelier who invited them to discover the authentic taste of Romanian vineyards and celebrate National Day together.<\/strong>People couldn’t contain their emotions, pleasantly surprised by these moments and visibly overwhelmed with joy that they had returned home and could raise a glass with their loved ones. <\/span><\/p>\n

In 2021, it organized a wine tasting for the first time in the renowned Times Square, and in 2022, the business community and distributors in Italy could taste the best Romanian wines at the Embassy of Romania in Rome. This year, the program joins the Romanian Embassies in Rome and in Paris to celebrate both National Day and the fact that 2023 is a record year for Romania, ranking 4th in the world for wine production growth. <\/span><\/p>\n
