MILESTII MICI Wine Cellar

Stretching for 250 km, of which only 120 km are currently in use, the Mileştii Mici cellar complex is also the largest in the world. In 2007 Mileştii Mici wine cellars were noted in Guinness World Records 2007 Yearbook, for having the largest (2 million) wine collections in the world.

The State Enterprise Quality Wines Industrial Complex "Milestii Mici" was founded in 1969 to store, preserve and mature high-quality wines.
Local ancient underground galleries reach the Chisinau borders. The limestone in the galleries maintains constant humidity (85-95%) and temperature (12 °C(54 °F) - 14 °C (57 °F)) throughout the year. The longer some specific red wines are stored in such ideal conditions, the more they improve. Some wines are cellared for several decades before being sold. The cellars extend for 250 kilometres (160 mi), of which only 120 kilometres (75 mi) are currently in use.
 The most valuable items of this collection, worth €480 a bottle.
