Old pre-phylloxera vines of Grenache and Carignan along with Syrah make up the great trio of varieties in the Muntada blend. The winemaking is old-fashioned with native yeasts, concrete tanks and maturation in old foudres for eighteen months. Muntada has excellent depth and intensity while managing to maintain its characteristic elegance. It is a “raw”...

The wine is fermented with spontaneous yeasts in a combination of cement and oak tanks and is matured for eight months in them. It has that lovely peppery character of the Rhone wines but with very restrained alcohol and more fresh than overripe fruit. The tannins are soft and flowing on the palate, possessing both breadth and density. There's nothing to...
A fifty-year-old vineyard that shines thanks to the efforts of Panagiotis and his ancestors to help it live effectively and without chemical interference. It is nature itself that is radiant and seeing it makes you realize the importance of standing a step back, observing carefully and listening to the needs of nature. She in turn reciprocates with a wine...
70% Garnacha Tintorera, also known as Alicante Bouschet and 30% from Moravia Agria a grape with low alcohol and high acidity are the blend of Albahra which means small sea. The two varieties are vinified separately in cement tanks with Garnacha undergoing whole-bunch fermentation while maturation is in cement for Garnacha and in neutral barriques for...

The year gave the wine a fine balance of alcohol and acidity with mild - for the variety - tannins. Combined with plenty of fruit on the palate, they help it to be enjoyable and expressive without requiring long cellar ageing. Its...
Santalo is not just a wine from a special vineyard; it is also a unique vineyard at an altitude of 830m, where many different varieties are planted (field blend), as was traditionally the case in old vineyards. From this small plot, the Kotsifalia grapes for Santalos are separated from the other varieties and vinified 100% whole bunch, with the entire...
Mantilari, a difficult and demanding variety, manages to give its best here. Its vinification results in an easy-to-drink wine, considering the character of the variety. The first stage involves bleeding, with the juice being used for the winery's rosé, thus enhancing the body and volume of the red. Extraction lasts only 6 days, limiting excessive tannin...
Vines planted in 1943, manual harvesting, cup-shaped stumps, extremely stony terroir, whole bunch vinification at low temperatures that delay the native yeasts from working and add complexity to the wine, and fermentation and maturation in concrete tanks. There's nothing about the above suggestions that doesn't generate excitement among the wine lovers...
