DRY RED - Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) Peloponnese
Grape variety: Cabernet Franc 40%, Merlot 40%, Agiorghitiko 20%
Fermentation and long post-fermentation maceration in stainless steel vats. Full malolactic fermentation and ageing in French barriques for 13 months and in bottle for a further 6 months. Red cherries, morello cherries, liqueur crème de cacao, cinnamon, cedar, abundant and elaborate mouth.
Tasting notes: The colour is deep, ruby with ruby highlights. The nose is intense, dense with a sense of freshness due to the vegetal character of Cabernet Franc. The aromatic character is based on ripe fruits (red berry, red cherry and ripe strawberry) along with sweet aromas of chocolate, cinnamon, cedar and a touch of barrel. On the palate it is full, with a rich extract, alcohol that balances the accentuated acidity and ripe dense tannins. The palate aromas follow those of the nose with more accentuated fruit. The aftertaste has duration, volume and complexity.
