Description
100% Mavrotragano from the magnificent Clos Stegasta vineyard. Fermentation with whole berries and whole bunches in big oak casks with indigenous yeasts isolated from our vineyards. The wine matures for about a year in 500 ltr oak barrels, 20% new. A seductive wine with a plethora of aromas. Oregano and violets are wrapped around a core of dark cherries, green pepper and roast espresso. The palate sets the ground along with the velvety tannins cutting through a complex and complete finish. A spherical wine seamlessly textured with no hard edges in sight. Delicious early on, better with age.
