Description
A luscious blend of Greek indigenous varieties: Limnio, Mavroudi, and Mavrotragano. Limnio, mentioned by Aristotle as “Limnia Ampelos” in the 5th century BC is the oldest attested Greek grape variety and predominates in this blend. The wine ages from 12 to 18 months in French oak barrels. It has a brilliant, deep red colour and a complex bouquet of ripe dark fruits (raspberries), raisins, coffee, and cocoa. On the palate, gentle tannins are supported by an abundance of fruit, creating power and balance. The aftertaste continues with a repetition of the spices. Excellent aging potential (15-20 years). Served at 16-18 °C.
Paired with red meat in casserole with spicy sauces, and hairy game.
