- Rich and robust savoury dark chocolate and coffee flavours complement barbecued beef's enticing aromas. Concentrated yet elegant, the Estate Red offers a pronounced bouquet of black fruits, ripe plum and wild cherry, complemented by spice. On the palate, gentle tannins are enhanced by great fruit intensity. It is round and harmonious, with a long, spicy, and persistent finish.
The three varieties, Syrah, Limnio (pronounced LIM-neeo), and Merlot, were vinified according to classic red fermentation methods. The wine was then aged in French oak barrels for approximately 12 months and bottled without any fining or filtration.

Winery | At Ktima Gerovassiliou, the single, private vineyard is cultivated with great care and enthusiasm, which leads to constant research and experimentation with Greek and international varieties. New technological advances blend well with tradition throughout the vine growing and vinification processes to produce high-quality wines that carry all the distinct characteristics of the terroir of Epanomi. The climate is Mediterranean, with mild winters and hot summers tempered by sea breezes. The vineyard is surrounded by the sea, which is three kilometres away, while its west side faces the Thermaic Gulf, Mount Olympus and the beaches of Pieria. The vines are grown in soils which are mainly sandy with a few clayey substrates and calcareous rocks. It is rich in marine fossils, as sea deposits form the surrounding hilly area. |
