A Great weekend in Athens; 2/12/2011-2/13/2011 (Athens, Greece): Made with red mandilaria grape from santori accoarding to 3000 year old method of dying the grapes in the sun for 8-14 days and then fermented and matured for 2 years in oak. Something to try, dense syropy very nice but you need a sweet tooth to like it. We do!

Bought at producer in Sep. 2006. Opened one bottle in Aug. 2007 and it seemed to be more raisiny, a little less refreshing, maybe even slightly tired compared to what I remembered from the tasting a year back. It would probably keep quite well, but I think, I liked the younger one more. Still it's a very nice and interesting dessert. Very deep red. The bouquet has fresh fruity notes (blackcurrant), raisins (probably less than typical reciotto) and the signature Santorini tang adds another dimension. Concentrated on the palate, strongly flavoured with pomegranate and blackcurrant fruit, strong accidity and nice minerality. Very long aftertaste. As a bonus, it keeps quite well after opening.

(NV Sigalas Mezzo) From 375 ml - opaque black red violet color; tart plum, dried berry, baked black fruit nose; dried berry, baked black fruit, dried currant, pomegranate palate with a sweet and sour aspect, reminiscent of Lagrein; long finish (bottle was purchased at Sigalas on Santorini in 2007, so had 3-plus years of bottle age)
