pale golden colour
oxidative notes and ripe yellow fruits & minerality
full bodied, oily texture, alcohol sweetiness, distinctive salinity, yummy!

colour: deep ruby, young looking

2009 Christos Kokkalis Cabernet Sauvignon Trilogia

-Colour: Deep opaque, purple rim, medium legs.
-Aromas: Magnificent fresh intense and expressive nose, dark berries, oak fully supported by the fruit, spice, mint, a hint of leather (though not pretty sure there).
-Body: Medium+ to full -bodied
-Taste: Enters smoothly in the mouth,and then BOOM! Juicy fruit, tannins of good quality cover your mouth (though a little edgy at the moment even for my taste) and then high acidity takes over driving you to complex (fruity-spicy) long aftertaste ~15sec.
Verdict:- Overall great wine to enjoy with food at the moment
-Pricey (35 Euros in Germany)
-Maybe too young to drink
-Interesting ageing potential
-Would buy again in order to keep it for a while
- A good greek Cab
P.S. 1 If you don't agree with my rating plz let me know.
P.S. 2 Danke Herr Kokkalis für den tollen Wein.
