Mavro derives from Mavrotragano and its deep, opaque almost black color. Mavro of T-Oinos Winery is a premium Mavrotragano that sets the bar very high even for its siblings from Santorini.
The winery was founded in 2002 in Falatado, Tinos. Assyrtiko, Malagouzia, Mavrotragano and Avgoustiatis were planted for the first time on the island. The first vintage was in 2008 and since then, everything indicated the brilliant course to follow. Mavrotragano comes from the two iconic terroirs of Clos Stegasta and Agios Dimitrios. It ferments in oak tanks, followed by malolactic and maturation in 500-liter oak barrels for about 2 years. The result easily ranks it among the 10 best Greek red wines out there.
