100% Mavrotragano from the island of Tinos. Vineyards as dense as 11,000 vines per hectare. Less than 2,000 bottles made. Deep purple in colour. Not the most revealing nose with an early plastic note followed by blackberry and mulberry. Broad and tight with fine-drawn tannins, limpid fruit and a riveting overall feel. So alluring.

Black cherry, blackberry, coffee roast, florality on the nose. Medium to full-bodied, firm tannins, medium to high acidity. Long aftertaste. Youthful, needs time to express itself and gain in weght and roundness. World class wine.

Deep ruby colour. Medium+ intensity nose showing notes of vanilla, cedar, black cherries and hints of plums.
It is dry in the mouth with a medium+ acidity and velvety tannins. It is full-bodied with a medium concentration and medium finish.
It is a good quality wine, freshness being its main virtue, but the oaky aromas overpower the fruit notes. It has just enough flavour concentration and a moderate finish. It could be better, maybe oak will integrate with some bottle ageing.
