This Kotsifali and Mavrotragano blend by Karavitakis has proved to be one of the most unique and successful blends of Greek varieties. The Kotsifali gives generous doses of fruity and intense character and the Mavrotragano fives elegance and liveliness. The blend matures for 11 months in second-use French oak barrels for extra depth and complexity. With notes of dark fruits, violets and black olive tapenade, this wine will make a superb value alternative to deep, dark and elegant Northern Rhone wines.
