Description
This wine displays a deep red colour with dark ruby hues. The nose is expressive with blackberry, raspberry, and clove notes, followed by subtle tobacco and wild herb aromas. On the palate, rich flavours of dark fruits and chocolate are supported by velvety tannins, delivering a smooth, well-balanced finish.
This is one of the few Kanakaris wines aged in oak, with third or second-fill barrels used to help soften Agiorgitiko’s natural tannins over six months, before bottling.
The fruit for this wine is sourced from selected vineyards in Aigialia and Nemea, situated at elevations between 400 and 800 metres above sea level. Here, the soil is comprised of calcareous clay and sand, resulting in intensely concentrated fruit. The vines are trained in the Double Royat trellising system and managed with minimal irrigation, inorganic pest control and mechanical soil cultivation. All fruit is harvested by hand to ensure optimal quality and precision at harvest.
