Megali Petra

Minies, Kefalonia

Deep ruby color with a moderate nose, medium volume body, with unexpectedly velvety tannins and the refreshing acidity of the variety.

Description

MEGALI PETRA

a limited production dry red Mavrodafni wine.

VINEYARD

“Melissa” is a 55 y.o vineyard in the area of Minies, in south of the island. A place next to the Ionian sea, with zero altitude and clay soil.

VINIFICATION

After destemming and crashing, the grapes ferment in stainless steel vats and remain on the skins for 7 days with repeated mixing, at the end of the period racking in stainless steel by soft pressing.

TASTING NOTES

Deep ruby color with a moderate nose, from which black fruits, such as black cherry, stand out along with spices. Medium body with balanced acidity gives a seductive result, in combination with the velvety tannins and the long lasting aftertaste.
