This Greek cab sauv has a deep wave of dark berry, blackcurrant and Morello cherry enveloping the palate that is wrapped in subtle hints of warm spice, violet, tobacco and leather. Firm yet polished tannin lead to a lingering black fruit finish, calling for slow-braised short ribs, a meatball sandwich or roasted root vegetables.
Oenogenesis is owned and operated by one of the greatest oenologists of Greece, Bakis Tsalkos, who trained and worked in Montpellier and Bordeaux for most of his life. He belongs to the generation of oenologists who revived the Greek wine industry, and he single-handedly created the winemaking industry of Drama in the 80’s, the youngest one of Greece. His principle is the absence of anything chemical, with as little intervention or spraying in the vineyard as possible. -Importer's Notes
