History
Cramele (literally 'cellar') Recas is a premium wine estate located on the far western fringes of the Romanian region of Transylvania/Banat near Romania's third largest city, Timisoara. Founded in 1998, Cramele Recas is a private Romanian company owned by winemaking team made up of three families, including husband-and-wife teams Philip and Elvira Cox and Hartley Smithers and Nora Iriate. The vineyards, said to be some of the oldest in the world, were first planted in the area by the Romans with documents dating back to 1447 on the Recas vineyard land.
