Opened and left to rest. A magnificent bottle and testament to what well made well matured Greek reds can achieve. Soft cherries, earthy, secondary wine with a very much singing nose. Soft, silky tannin but very much alive and bang on the money for people like us who love a bit of age in their reds. Superb 92-93

Surprisingly youthful with deep garnet colour. Nose was marred by a TCA-like aroma though, which is not present at all in the mouth. I am almost positive that it's not TCA. On the palate it has a solid structure and lots of freshness and fruit. I could not enjoy completely because of that aroma on the nose. I have half a bottle left which I will revisit.

A positive surprise! Great wine. Wait another 7-10 years.
