Product notes
Macedonia is located in the north-east of Greece, the land of choice for Xinomavro, but also for Syrah, which is rather a land of adoption. The continental (dry) climate is conducive to temperature variations (night vs. day). The region's rugged topography (mountains, lakes and rivers) generates a range of microclimates ideal for vines.
Production notes
Vinification in stainless steel vats separated and final assembly in bottle
Tasting notes
Aromas of wild berries (cherry and blackberry) with notes of peppermint with a nuance of roasting. The palate is fresh, delicious with ripe and velvety tannins, giving it texture and suppleness. Balanced whole, almost crunchy, ensuring length and which in the finish reminds us of the fruits and the menthol of the olfactory. Pairings with red meats on the BBQ
