Jidvei

Founded by Claudiu Necșulescu and led by his family, Jidvei honors centuries-old winemaking practices while embracing cutting-edge techniques. The Târnave Valley’s cool climate, fertile soil, and rolling hills provide the perfect environment for aromatic white varieties like Fetească Regală, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscat Ottonel. Jidvei’s wines are renowned for their vibrant acidity and elegant floral notes, capturing the essence of Transylvania’s terroir.

Pioneering in Romanian viticulture, Jidvei was the first to adopt GPS-guided planting technology, enhancing precision and sustainability. The company also integrates eco-friendly practices, such as converting grape pomace into biofuel and transitioning to organic farming. These efforts reflect Jidvei’s dedication to environmental stewardship.

The winery operates four state-of-the-art facilities—JIDVEI, Blaj, Bălcaciu, and Tăuni—combining advanced technology with traditional methods. Its signature sparkling wines, particularly those made from Fetească Regală using the méthode champenoise, are a global favorite.

Jidvei’s cultural and oenological experience extends to the 17th-century Bethlen-Haller Castle, offering luxury wine tourism with organic dining, vineyard tours, and wine tastings.

Globally recognized, Jidvei’s wines have earned awards from the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles and Decanter World Wine Awards, reinforcing its standing as a premier producer. As it continues to grow, Jidvei remains the personification of Romanian winemaking distinction.
