Tabouri Rare Earths from Strofilia winery is a single varietal Cabernet Franc that has already made a strong impression. If you enjoy red wines with an intense fruity character, round and juicy tannins, and a botanical background of freshness, this wine is perfect for you. It’s become one of our favourites too!
Strofilia is one of the most historic wineries in the country and its path began in 1980. The common struggles for the future plans of the two electrical engineer friends at the time, Yannis Maltezos and Achilleas Lampsidis brought to the surface a sincere desire of theirs to deal with wine, but not for livelihood reasons. So, 2 years later they made their first amateur bottling at the Maltezou family's wine press. The storfilia that existed there was also the name of their future winery, which was built in the location of Patitiria at Anavyssos. In 2020, the oenologist Yiannis Ligas was added to the team and together they are going through the new era of the winery, which is surrounded by continuous international awards.
Tabouri Strofilia belongs to the premium bottling series, Rare Earths, which includes only high-quality wines, in very limited bottles. Cabernet Franc grapes come from Asprokambos vineyard, located at an altitude of 800 meters. After fermentation with selected yeasts, the wine ages in 225-liter French oak barrels for 12 months.
A Cabernet Franc that is bottled unfiltered and is quite simply delicious!
