Those not in Romania & Moldova.

Actually the Czech Republic has some interesting reds, Frankova & Vavrinishki(sp). In the Cold War Premiat from Romainia had decent QPR wines and there are some of the traditional varietals that can be a nice quaff, but in general Hungary & The Czech Republic are more promising,

Spot on Ken.

I am planning a trip to Romania and Moldova, have any of you being there?

Look for Bull's Blood, it's from Hungary and Romania. >>

BB is a well-known Hungarian product, but the unique one is the dessert wine Tokay. It'll never be cheap at the top levels, but you might used this occasion to do a little tasting at the source and cradle one or two superb bottles in your carry-ons on return. A very pleasant trip to take from Budapest is the day-long visit to Lake Balaton and its wineries. A delicious local lunch is usually included, with several different wines.

A good idea, except that the OP is *not* asking for Hungarian wine... Anders

OK, I'll have go here: Murfatlar Late Harvest Chardonnay is a good QPR even here in Finland and not a bad dessert wine in any case.

However, my limited experiences with other Romanian wines have not been so good.
