Description

Grape Varieties: Limnio, Mauroudi, Mavrotragano

A luscious blend of three Greek indigenous red varieties: Limnio, Mavroudi and Mavrotragano. Limnio, mentioned by comic dramatist Aristophanes as “Limnia ampelos” in the 5th century BC (vine from the Greek island Limnos), is the oldest attested Greek grape variety and predominates in this blend.


TASTING NOTES

It has a brilliant, deep-red color and a complex bouquet of ripe dark fruits (raspberries), raisins, coffee and cacao. 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 ageing potential.

PAIRINGS

Red meat stews in spicy sauces, game.
