  A blend of the local varieties Limnio, Mavroudi and Mavrotragano, this is arguably my favorite red from the winery, nice cherry feeling with intense fresh/mineral backbone, drinking very nicely @16-17 C with an hour of decanting.

  Bu dans le wine bar en succ, une curiosité.
  Fait de Limnio: 40%, Mavrotragano: 40% et Mavrud: 20%.
  Assez frais, un brin simple et rustique.
  Beau fruit avec un peu d'épice.
  Finale un brin courte.
  A semblé un peu fluide, à plus de 40$ on s'attend à pas mal plus de complexité!

  Restaurant pop and decant - sharp purple red - some heat and grape in the nose - full, round and smooth in the mouth - forest on some hills - decent finish - lacking "yum", but a nice drink.

  Weak 90. Wine runs a bit hot. Difficult for me to tell how wine will improve with time. Wine has enough fruit and tannin that is smooth and integrated, but there is a certain astringency that suggests wine should be drunk a few degrees cooler.

  Very interesting Cuvee of three Greek grape varieties with most prominent the Limnio grape. The nose is pretty strong full of red berry notes (overripe red berries), as well as some spicy and wooden notes. I thougt it was pretty complex. The taste was not as strong as the nose, but also filled with berry notes. The tannins are very present and adds to the overall strong impression of the wine. The finish is medium and not as complex as the nose might have suggested. Intersting wine from interesting varieties.
