You should try Vinia Traian[1] then, It's very close to the Gagauzia autonomous region, located in the Valul lui Traian PGI[2]. Also anything from Slobozia Mare: Domeniile Davidescu, Vinaria din Vale. They also have Saperavi, a Gerogian grape variety. A popular Moldovan variety is Rara Neagra but you should be careful not to consume it alone without meat or cheese because it's an older variety, it's more acidic and might cause stomach burns if you drink anything in excess of several glasses. In Romania it's called Babeasca Nagra and in Ukraine it's known as Sereksiya. Purcari has a wine called Freedom Blend consisting of Saperavi, Rara Neagra and Bastrado, an Ukrainian variety. The name is obviously a pun.

Off-topic, where can I find moldovan wines in the US, specially any rara neagra? I used to buy them in a store in Ohio (Jungle Jim's), but I don't live in the Midwest anymore.
