Like every year, loyal to their appointment, the two younger sons of Yannis Papargyriou are here with their creation. Their game became wine, and not just another wine. Young Winemakers 2018 by Estate Papargyriou makes many "Great" and experienced winemakers jealous. Minimum production, absolutely collectible, the wine of the two kids shows that they now know very well what they are doing.
Agiorgitiko and Touriga Nacional were traditionally harvested late from very specific vineyards. The blend matured into a French second-usage oak barrel for 12 months acquiring a spicy feeling while the late harvest is the main cause for the high alcoholic volume. It was then bottled in just 1.700 gorgeous bottles that, like every year, were numbered by hand.
The two apprentice wizards are already making their parents Yannis and Helen, proud of their achievements both in school and in the winery.
In the 6th year of bottling of the wine that started as a game, the Young Winemakers 2018 from Papargyriou estate, leave even the most discerning speechless. Intense, over-concentrated, is one of those that when you taste it, you are most likely to say: Who did you say did this? No way!
It is one of those who have many years ahead of them, so we have kept some to see them again in a decade. Just trust us.
