When I was last in Moldova, I went wine tasting at Purcari Manor, located on the west banks of the Dniester River. This is a modern and westernised winery, where you can now sample Merlot, Cabernet-Sauvignon, Rara Neagra and Pinot Noir varieties whilst enjoying a traditional lunch.

Tiraspol City Breaks
Tiraspol is Moldova’s second largest city and capital of the breakaway communist republic of Transdniestr. Predominantly Russian, Tiraspol is a curious place where the Soviet spectre still looms large and the Transdniestran desire to separate itself from Moldova couldn’t be made clearer. Take a stroll up and down 25th October Street and see Soviet structures and monuments, such as a tank and Lenin statue, and head into one of the pleasant parks before visiting one of the enlightening attractions here such as the House of Soviets and the War Museum.
