Winemaker's Notes:
Peppery character, black fruits, burst of aromas
The blend with the two indigenous varieties of Ioannina, Vlahiko and Bekari, creates an enviable dry red wine with a bursting aromatic character.
The earthy elegance that is given from the aromas of “freshly cut mushroom” as well as the spicy elements in its composition create a completely complex and fascinating bouquet of aromas.
The colour and flavour bring to mind wild red and black berries, such as blueberries and wild cherries. It ages for 2 years in French oak barrels and it is enriched with aromas and body, thus becoming even more exceptional.

The predominantly indigenous red grape variety of Epirus, that has been cultivated for a very long time in the area of Zitsa at an altitude higher than 600 metres and in sloping limestone soils. It exhibits the characteristics of the cold climate in the mountainous regions where it is produced and which endures low temperatures, limited sunlight and regular rainfalls.
Located at a semi-mountainous microclimate, which extends to approximately 250 acres and is one of the most remote and distant areas in Northwestern Greece.

Red wine is wine made from dark-coloured grape varieties. The color of red differs based on the grapes variety or varieties used.Interestingly, black grapes yield a juice that is greenish-white. The actual red color comes from anthocyan pigments (also called anthocyanins) from the skin of the grape (exceptions are the relatively uncommon teinturier varieties, which produce a red colored juice). Most of the production centers around the extraction of color and flavor from the grape skin.
