This paper presents a qualitative evaluation of soils from the main vineyards of Banat, generally recognized by its red wines. Strictly viewed from a qualitative point of view, the soils cultivated with grapevines fall into the medium or low fertility category. However, if certain requirements are met - exposition, slope, soil land climate conditions – these soils can ensure the necessary conditions for cultivating grapevines and obtaining high and good quality productions. The geological conditions in which the soils of this area have been formed and evolved - in Moldova-Nouă, on shale, quartz and calcite; in Buziaș, on carbonate clays; and Recaș and Tyrol, on poorly reddish and slightly carbonated clays and loams.
