Why do we love it?

Le Roi Des Montagnes Cuvee is a truly great wine. In fact, it is perhaps the one who lays the groundwork for what a great wine must be leaving behind all the rest who try in vain to reach it. Undeniably the very limited production Le Roi Des Montagnes is a king who descended from the mountain and has rightfully earned his place in our glasses and in our hearts.

Yiannis Papargyriou is one of the most ambitious and promising Greek producers. He has managed, though young, to create his own personal style. A style that you recognize with the first sip and say "Papargyriou knocked the ball out of the park again". Cuvee consists of an amazing blend based on Cabernet Sauvignon and complemented by Touriga Nacional and Mavrodaphne, each giving its own distinctive features. Traditionally high in alcohol since its base is overripe grapes, it gives concentration and structure lessons. The 20 month - maturation in barrels of 300 lt French oak adds complexity and manages to soften the tannins giving them an unexpected velvety feel. The unfiltered, with minimal interventions wine, is bottled in a beautiful, award-winning bottle. Le Roi Des Montagnes Cuvee by Papargyriou Winery, though incredibly young yet, is already wonderfully enjoyable today. 

When to drink it? Now and tomorrow and in one or five years from now and always. It is always delicious and intoxicating.

Tastes Like

With its deep and dense purple color, it impresses while stil in the glass.

Rich, evolving nose with cherry, mature strawberry and gooseberry jam followed by spicy aromas black pepper, vanilla and tobacco. Fresh soil, violet and herbal hints of black tea continue the aromatic parade. Then comes eucalyptus, milk chocolate and roasted coffee. You will surely discover something new while you wait. Leave some in the bottle and return for it tomorrow.

Rich, tasty on the palate with intensity and velvety texture. The elaborately crafted tannins are perfectly balanced with the noticeable acidity and traditional pinched alcohol which does not feel unfamiliar or chokes the fruit. Cherry and ripe strawberry feel like they were dipped in pepper and remain in the mouth in the long-lasting aftertaste.

In the milk, dissolve ¼ of the beef stock cube, mix and add to the mixture. After kneading for 5 to 7 minutes, we make kebabs in the corresponding shape. Put the kebabs in the refrigerator and leave for 1 hour. In a frying pan, mix all the ingredients of the sauce together and simmer until it thickens. Roast the kebabs and pitta breads on a charcoal grill or in the oven. After the kebabs are cooked, put them on the pitta breads by adding plenty of sauce, yogurt and chili flakes, preferably!
