The history of winemaking in Moldova began long before the last governor of Bessarabia, Constantin Mimi, built Mimi Castle.

For about 3000 years, viticulture and wine production has been the main occupation of local people, and the industry has come a long way and evolved.

The story of Mimi Castle, however, begins with one of the most dedicated winemakers of the 20th century, Constantin Mimi.

His legend
Constantin Mimi

Legends are created by extraordinary people who achieve great things, motivated by their passion and dreams, unafraid of hard work and with dedication. One of these people is our creator, Constantin Mimi, a pioneer, iconic winemaker and important public figure of the 20th century. He dedicated his life to wine. Applying the knowledge he acquired in Western Europe, Constantin Mimi succeeded in building the first castle in Moldova.

This has driven him to produce excellent wines and raise standards by implementing new technologies. Thanks to his actions, the country's winemaking industry has not once been saved, so that today Moldova can be one of the leading wine producers in the world. Constantin Mimi's legacy continues. The castle together with his secret recipes and diligent approach have been passed on to future generations of winemakers, who reward his memory by continuing to produce high quality wines suitable for any occasion.

We raise our glasses with our guests and remember Constantin Mimi, the remarkable personality who set in motion the development of wine culture in Bessarabia.
