5.00What a great find in old town Bucharest. We 1st came here for a pre drink before dinner and it was lovely, welcoming atmosphere and lovely glass of wine which was recommended to us. We then decided on going back for the 8 course wine tasting the following day and we were not disappointed. Such a lovely afternoon with great selection of Romanian wines and also some cheese and meats.. Highly recommended
A great experience in a nice area of Bucharest

5.00We really enjoyed this experience. Our host did an excellent job of explaining the wines and making us feel welcome. The bread, cheese, meats and chutney were excellent accompaniments. We enjoyed all of the wines but the two whites were some of the best we’ve ever had, we ended up taking a bottle of the second white home and they gave a 15% discount. Our only minor criticism would be the cheese selection. My girlfriend is vegetarian and one of the three cheese was Parmesan, which isn’t vegetarian, but she loved the other two. Thanks again for a great time.
Lovely experience

5.00There are no words that can describe both the hospitality and value of this experience. The staff are very knowledgeable and so friendly. I never knew Romanian wines were so sensational; the food alike was beautiful. I highly recommend you stop here in Bucharest!
Great wines in a friendly atmosphere.

5.00I was given a warm welcome, then poured a lovely selection of Romanian wines from native grape varieties. It was a great introduction to varieties and regions I previously knew nothing about, but will certainly be looking for in the future! The tasting was two hours, although I'm sure I could have stayed for longer if I had wanted. I was encouraged to take my time trying the generous servings along with a nice selection of cheeses and meats. This is well worth booking if, like me, you love wine but are not familiar with Romanian wines.
Great wine tasting experience, highly recommended

5.00From experience I am aware that Eastern European wines can be of good quality so I was keen to sample some during a short break in Bucharest, Abel's did not disappoint. I opted for the 'classic' tasting experience for two people which was just right, it included 5 wines, water and a charcuterie board. Dario was an excellent host and provided an excellent explanation of the grape variety, region etc. I booked direct with Abel's which is easier (and maybe less expensive) than going via a third party agent.

5.00This was easily the nicest bar I visited in Bucharest. Not at all touristy. I was the only one doing a tasting but that didn't detract from the experience. Was given interesting explanations for each wine, then allowed time to enjoy them while nibbling the generous portion of cheeses and cold meats. If I was a local, I'd be a regular in this bar. Book this experience, it's a couple of hours well spent.
Perfect experience

5.00Fabulous evening. Our first night in the city. Relaxed atmosphere. A range of Romanian wines (five in total) and a delicious cold meats and cheese platter. Our host gave us lots of information about the wines, grapes and regions. Highly recommend.
