Winemakers Notes:
This is a blend of Cabernet, Merlot and the ancient Limnió. Inordinately soft, with noticeable residual sugar. There are vegetative flavors that are somewhat typical of Greek Cabernet grown in warmer regions. Concentration is good, the fruit somewhat caramelized, with a slightly leathery mouth feel. 12 months in oak may have compromised some of the fruit, which is lacking by New World standards for similar wines. Still, this is a wine notable for its complexity and ambitious ideals. |
