Our tasting notes:

The specific characteristics of the three grapes complement each other to evolve into intriguing and harmonious wine with rich aromas of plums, ripe cherry, red forest berries, cloves and as a result of ripening in bottle, notes like leather, spice, dark chocolate. The taste is smooth with good fruit concentration and silky tannins, yet fresh and balanced, due to its high acidity that accompanies the wine to its long and memorable finish.

Best with:

cold meat starters, steak, burger, lamb, barbeque, stewed, moussaka.
