Constantin Brâncoveanu owned vineyards as well, including in Dealu Mare region, and old documents show that he was receiving a tax on wine, called “vinarici”. Romania has a very long tradition of wine production, dating back more than 2000 years ago, which explains why it is currently the 5th producer of wine in Europe and one the biggest producers in the world. Brâncoveanu was not only producing wine and wine distilate, but also vermouth (“Hypocratic wine”), vodka, gin flavoured vodkas and bitters. Old manuscripts from Brâncoveanu era are among the first cookbooks ever written in Romanian language.

In his religious and laic constructions, Brâncoveanu harmoniously combined in architecture the mural and sculptural painting, the local tradition, the Neo-Byzantine style and the innovative ideas of the Italian Renaissance, giving rise to Brâncovenesc style, which is the original Romanian style. The most accomplished and the best-preserved example of Brâncovenesc style architecture is Horezu monastery, inscribed by UNESCO on its list of World Heritage Sites, where Brâncoveanu intended to have his tomb. 

Other buildings built by him are Mogoşoaia Palace complex, Potlogi Palace, Brâncoveanu monastery, and many others. The neo-Romanian style was born from the style of the monasteries, of the houses and of the palaces of Brâncoveanu and it became the national style at the time of the affirmation of the cultural identities of the nations of Europe in the beginning of the 20th century. Brâncoveanu was deposed from his throne by Sultan Ahmed III, and brought under arrest to Istanbul, where he was imprisoned and tortured by the Ottomans.
