GUARDA CABERNET FRANC - BODEGA LAGARDE
The first time you try Guarda Cabernet Franc from Bodega Lagarde, you will never forget it. The intoxicating aroma of purple flowers and rich red and black fruit, combined with the unpretentious elegance and silky tannins, will immediately put it in your heart and in the list of your favorite red wines! It comes from a single 27-year-old vineyard in Lujan de Cuyo, at an altitude of 960 meters. The wine ferments with native yeasts at relatively high temperatures. It then matures for 12 months in French oak barrels, acquiring a highly spicy character and impressive complexity.
VINTNER'S RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON - KENDALL JACKSON
Vintner's Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 - Kendall Jackson is an impressive red wine with the characteristic Californian style. Plenty of fruit, smokey oak barrel and chocolate character will make you love it from the first sip. The wine fermented and matured in French (70%), American oak barrels and stainless-steel tanks for 11 months. The result is exuberant, fruity and juicy.
BONARDA - EL ENEMIGO
El Enemigo Bonarda is a deeply emotional wine inspired by art and the wines of Adrianna Catena and Alejandro Vigil's ancestors. A wine that once you try it you will want to drink only this for the rest of your life. Argentina's unsung hero, Bonarda, in the hands of Alejandro, has begun to win over very important people, such as Robert Parker and Tim Atkin, and makes you wonder why they had not discovered its greatness earlier.
MALBEC - FINCA AGOSTINO
Finca Agostino Malbec is the wine that has it all, in the right dosage and wherever and whomever you open it, jaws will fall! The blend of two different vineyards (Barrancas with an altitude of 850m. And from the heart of the Uco valley in La Consulta) contributes to the creation of a wine with unique balance and complexity as it has the acidity of the altitude and the rich, ripe fruit of the valley. By staying for 10 months in a French, oak barrel and another 6 months in the bottle, it acquires this spicy, chocolate character that makes it simply irresistible.
ELIA SANGIOVESE - KARAVITAKIS WINERY
A unicorn wine: we ‘ve heard about it, but we never, ever have seen it or tasted it. And how could we, since Elia Sangiovese of Karavitakis Winery never existed between Greek borders.Our answer is yes, it is a terrific Sangiovese and yes, there are very limited bottles but luckily, we did find a few and managed to keep them here.Use a decanter to help it to unfold its complicated character.
LA REINE DES MONTAGNES NOIRE - PAPARGYRIOU ESTATE
What would a king be without his queen? Yiannis Papargyriou completes the chessboard with his strongest piece and next to the king Le Roi des Montagnes, he finally puts Mavrodaphni in the position that suits her. That of the queen! Mavrodafni comes from the vineyards planted in 2016 in Sofiana Corinthia, at an altitude of 850 meters. After the harvest, a 28-day extraction takes place, which gives the wine very rich fruity aromas, while it then ferments in 400-500 liter barrels with native yeasts, to finally be transferred to 1000 liter barrels, where it remains for 12 months. Its concentration, complexity and aging potential are jaw-dropping!
