| Panciu Vineyard |

Starting from the Far East and making a halt in the ancient Greece, the grapevine settled down on the territory of the ancient Dacia before Christ.
Getting over the persecutions of the great priest Deceneu, during Buerebista`s reign, who used to consider it harmful, getting over other natural impediments, such as phylloxera, drought and blight, the grapevine is still with us today and we name it exactly as our Dacian ancestors used to.
Romania`s geographical location and its remarkably varied relief (with numerous ranges of hills and dunes, as some huge amphitheatres of light allow the grapevine to express all its qualities into crops.

| Jidvei Vineyard |
| |
The private trade company JIDVEI SRL is located in the Tarnave Vineyard, more precisely in the Tarnava Valley, between Tarnaveni and Blaj, at the common border of Mures and Alba districts.
The vine covers over 1000 ha. Approximately 50 ha are renewed every year. The first state vineyard was founded here in 1949 and it has been gradually extended to a total area of 1000 ha.
The privatisation of the viticulture, fruit-growing sectors and the wine cellar has given a new dimension of Jidvei vineyard development. The Jidvei winery is financial healthy, as the exports grow monthly and the consumption is high.
The vine plantations were established on the sunny hills on the left-hand side of Tarnava Mica, sheltered from the winds, the late spring and the early autumn hoarfrost.
