Contains one of each of the following.
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.
AGIOS CHRONOS - AVANTIS ESTATE
With a philosophy reminiscent of Rhone, Apostolos Mountrichas, who is considered the master of Syrah in Greece, mixes Syrah with an 8% Viognier. The blend ages for 12 months in new French, oak barrels. The grapes come from the privately owned vineyards of the Avantis Estate, in Afrati of Mytika, Evia. With undivided attention to the vineyard but also to the vinification, a rich, complex but also elegant wine emerges, capable of moving every demanding palate. Bottled unfiltered and intended for deep aging.
DONA SILVINA PETIT VERDOT - BODEGAS KRONTIRAS
The rich ripe fruit of the New World, combined with the sweet and spicy character of the barrel and the robust structure of the variety, compose a truly irresistible combination! For Petit Verdit, Panos Zoumboulis takes advantage of the ideal microclimate of the area with the large temperature differences between day and night, achieving, without many interventions, grapes of exceptional maturity. The vinification is done in medium volume stainless steel tanks, with native doughs and then the juice matures for 18 months in oak barrels. Bottle and rest for another 6 months before you are ready to enjoy it.
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.
MONOPATI - AIVALIS WINERY
Monopati from Aivali Winery is one of the first premium Agiorgitika that were released and specifically, the first big wine of Christos Aivalis. The vineyard named Monopati in the area of Nemea, with its old vineyards that today reach the age of 50 years, but also its stony soil, gives every year its perfect, ripe and dense fruit. With careful vinification, according to French standards and aging for 16 months in French oak barrels, an Agiorgitiko results that in structure and concentration is more reminiscent of Cabernet Sauvignon than Bordeaux!
ZINFANDEL - ZINFANDELIC LAPIS LUNA
Are these Americans crazy? I do not know now about madness, but they have a psychedelia with Zinfandel. Zinfandelic is the new, big project of the Lapis Luna winery. It comes from the heart of Zinfandel's oldest vineyards, Lodi. The warm climate combined with the sandy and stony soils, are responsible for the juicy, fleshy and rich Zinfandel, with silky tannins. Aging in French and American barrels comes and emphasizes the rich fruit, giving spicy and chocolate notes.
