Travel: The Largest Wine Cellar in the World

In the small European country of Moldova comes something big.

Big, as in, The biggest wine collection in the biggest underground wine town.

With 2 million bottles to its name, Welcome to Milestii Mici.

The tour takes you into different catacombs named for different varietals of wine. As you note the ancient stone floors, cascading waterfalls and miles and miles of stone-shelved wines you feel as if you have been transported into a different era. The Golden Collection is the pride and joy of Moldova, and houses exquisite wines starting from the year 1969. It may be overwhelming when exploring the 55 kilometers of cellar open to the public, out of the 200 total used. After exploring underground, head to the tasting halls. The natural sea shell rock is highlighted by mosaic ponds, sculptures, stained-glass windows and warm light in this natural tasting paradise.
