DEKA RED 2010 - OENOGENESIS WINERY

Deka X red 2010 Oenogenesis Winery is a top red wine that combines uniquely the French finesse of Merlot with the robust and complex character of Xinomavro.

Bakis Tsalkos is known as the "maitre" of the creation of sophisticated aged white wines (Magic Mountain, Deka X White). The Deka X Red 2010 is proof that his talent is not limited there. The vintage of 2010 is even better and it’s Bakis’s favorite vintage so far!

Merlot (50%) and Xinomavro (50%) have joined forces in an amazing red wine, which has spent 24 months in oak barrels from 3 selected forests, has gained unique complexity and texture! In any case, Bakis does not hurry at all to get his wines on the market. He waits for the ideal moment, the one that will make you so excited about his creation that you will want to thank him for it.
