Join a unique painting class where you use wine as a natural painting medium instead of traditional paints. This class is suitable for all levels, including beginners. Guided step by step by an instructor, learn how to work with wine as pigment—exploring techniques such as layering, shading, dilution, and creating depth using different wine intensities. Beyond technique, the experience is calm, sensory, and meditative. As the wine dries and oxidizes, the colors evolve, making each artwork truly unique. It’s a creative process that encourages experimentation, patience, and attention to detail. All materials are provided, including paper, brushes, and selected wines used strictly for painting. Leave with your own finished artwork and a new creative perspective.

The Divin (brandy) is a wine spirit , produced by double distillation, according to the traditional method, from local raw material, the wine distillates are aged for at least 3 years in oak barrels. Its name “Divin” literally comes from the Romanian phrase “din vin”, which means “from wine”. “Divin” also means “divine” in Romanian, which is supported by the fact that, a large part of the distillates evaporate and therefore it is said that it goes to the sky to serve as a sacrifice for the quality obtained. Company S.A. "Barza Alba" ( The White Stork) is one of the largest divine producers in the Republic of Moldova and has begun its activity in 1944 as a Factory of Wine and Brandy in Balti. We will teach you how to distinguish the types, aromas, colours and tastes of the drinks. The sommelier of the company will tell you with great pleasure about the history and unique qualities of "Brandy", "Divin" and "Rachiu from apple cider", etc.
