Young ( no surprise here) but frankly we argued a bit if this wine is better youthful and bring hot than with age. Unfortunately aged examples of these wines are from another era of santorini winemaking so not characteristic to these newer and far better ( technically and so on) bottling. Fresh and rich , well mannered though and not pushed or overdone. Juicy and a good crowd pleaser but much like wines of its age we gpkept on asking where is the complexity . With age it will come like with the best of us. 90 for now

Too young to fully appreciate I guess. Big oaky wine with smoky flavors. This is in contrast with the acid fruits and a little bitter finish. Potential of 90+ ?

Impressively welcoming even at this young age and granted we only saw a small side of its full potential once it ages this was drinking very well and a crowd pleaser for sure ( in a good way) round and smooth, big on the fruit yet soft on the edges, juicy yet in balance. Very solid wine and an easy 90 For now but with potential for. Few more points if it ages well.

I thought this was rather good. Bright and with a precision lacking in many Greek reds. A tarry expression though fresh and fruity too.
Massively poor value though and at 40eur +++ like most Greek higher end reds it has to be a pass.
