La région viticole Cotnari (Roumanie) et ses vins dans l’ensemble des grandes régions viticoles européennes

Abstract

The author presents the geographical position of Romania as a vine-growing European country and analyses its relief and climate as factors of paramount importance for vine-growing environments. The climatogram system and the oenoclimatic aptitude index are applied in an analysis of the climatic characteristics of the Romanian vine-growing reg ions. The region of Cotnari and its wines, one of the oldest main vine-growing regions in the country, is characterised in the wider context of the main European vine-growing regions.
