Type: Dry Red Wine PDO Amyntaion
Varietal Composition: 100% Xinomavro
Region: Amyndeon, North Greece.
Matured in a stainless-steel tank for 12-18 months.
Tasting Characteristics: Bright, deep ruby colour with violet hues. On the nose we find aromas of small red forest fruit like raspberry, blackcurrant, sour cherry and plum which develops into ripe strawberry, dried tomato and sweet notes of vanilla. In the mouth it is rich with a round, delicate structure with a tantalising combination of acidity and mature tannins and a long finish.
AMYNTAS WINERY
The Amyntaion plateau is a special place. In one of the coldest regions in Greece, at an elevation of over 600 metres (2,000 feet), surrounded by high mountains and graced with four lakes this terroir is exceptional for vine cultivation. In this unique land the Amyntas Winery is making history for over 65 years. The only PDO in Greece for rosé sparkling wines, certified back in 1972, the region also produces still reds and rosés with elegant complexity due to the unique character of the Xinomavro grown in Amyntaion.
