Editorial Reviews

This has some assertive perfumes that combine notes of dried cherries, smoky, earthy tones and the spicy scent of new oak. In the mouth this is quite a structured wine with firm, slightly drying tannins and bright acidity supporting earthy dark cherry fruits. It's a touch rustic in one way yet with noticeable oak seems modern as well. In any event it's very young and can stand some time to soften those tannins but is enjoyable today for it bracing feel. Serve this with food, steak would be a good match. 87pts

Reviews

A classic red, using modern vinification techniques, that expressses the destinctive character of the indigenous Greek Xinomavro grape variety: vivid colour, complex aroma, robust flavour and great ageing potential. Pair with roast meats and chesses.
