Skouras Megas Oenos Vertical Tasting (Skouras Winery): Harvest: 25/09, Yield: 34hl/ha, production: 32.000 btl, Alc:12.1% The wine was not decanted. The color here looks more evolved The nose shows medium intensity but feels far more developed than either 1997 or 1998. The wine shows earthy, balsamic notes, leather with dried red cherries and currants. In the palate the wine shows more acidity, balsamic notes, the wine feels drier, tannins with some angles, leather and gamey notes and a very strange off-putting smoked fish note. The wine has short to medium finish

Familiar tastes of Saint George grape, with some velvety smoothness of Cabernet. Long, tannic finish with some dustiness that isn't totally expected. Unusual, but good. Nice mellow wine, will last for hours.
