Sala de Degustare Wine.md

Tasting room on Alexei Șciusev street, open daily from 11:00 to 23:00. The idea of the place is a wall of tasting machines you pour from yourself, at your own pace, and guests describe it as an experience in itself: you taste quickly and without fuss from a wide selection. You go down to the basement, and a guest who has returned several times says going downstairs for the wines and the food is a must. The producers named concretely in the reviews are Gitana, with Saperavi and Lupi, Mimi and Cricova. The food is praised separately, with mussels and escargots mentioned explicitly by a couple who describe the place as cosy and romantic. The waiters are described as happy to tell you about what they serve, and in the evening there is often live music. There is also a two-star review that contradicts part of this: for its author, the selection in the tasting machines was poor and vastly overpriced, the person serving had no idea what she was selling, and the wine the menu recommended for the dish they had chosen was not in stock.
