  Disclosure: i just discovered this grape on a trip in Greece and I’m not quite fond of it (yet ?)
  Lovely pomegranate, cassis and currant flavors. Very acid mouth that I find difficult to like. Very flavorful but quite something in the mouth. My wife did not like it at all.

  Much more forward than previous vintages - opened up very quickly. Excellent QPR, Stewed cherries/plums/strawberries, watermelon (*!), goji berrries with subtle hints of baking spice, liquorice and black olive.
