February 10, 2023 - Greek Unicorn Wines & Friends (Elystan Street, London): The unicorn of unicorns , one barrel made and frankly deserves the hype and once well aged this could well be the best red ever made in Greece.
For now it is young for sure but with a good hour of decant opened up well and albeit we saw but glimpses of its greatness we do have to say the greatness is there and at this stage is a blend of a Cote Rotie with Barolo. Effortlessly elegant and we plan of ageing these ( we have a few) for the next decade albeit probably will open a few along the to observe the greatness evolving. 95 for now but easily a few more points in the tank. -

November 25, 2021 - Probably the best vintage of this wine according tot he winemaker, this unicorn of a Greek wine ( Pre phylloxera, 1 barrel made a year and so on..) is a masterclass of quality and effortless beauty. Tasted side by side with the great 2016 ( Papies 94) this was a notch higher on the nose albeit a touch tighter on the palate. Impressive wine full of class and worth its price tag. Good luck finding it though! 95
