La Tour Melas Cyrus One 2016
Greek wine is gaining in popularity, so get in early while you can and say "I loved the wines from Greece way before everyone jumped on the bandwagon" with an air of pompous arrogance - just like we all want to say about everything we love... Anyway, yes, this is a tasty 2016 vintage red wine from La Tour Melas in the Greek village of Achinos. It's made with a combination of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Agiorgitiko, then allowed to aged for at least 15 months in oak before bottling. Suitable for enjoying with red meat dishes.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Raspberry and plum, with a touch of kumquat giving it a light edge. Soft smoke and earthy bitterness develops later on, though it's balanced by blackcurrant and honeyed florals.
