Περιγραφή
Perhaps the quintessential everyday Greek red wine for the Greek table. A pleasant wine with an elegant, aromatic nose and a balanced palate.
Katogi Averoff is a wine that could be described in just two words: A Constant Favorite! The first “good” Greek bottled red wine continues to honor its history. It can easily accompany all the grilled and braised meats of the everyday Greek table, and can also be served by the glass at any time and for any occasion.
Pairs with: Braised meats, pasta with red sauces, cold cuts.
Characteristics: Complex, clear red color with rich, attractive highlights. The nose combines aromas of red fruit with notes of spice and leather. A wine with exceptional balance and a smooth, full-bodied palate, leaving a long, delightful finish.
Winemaking: Classic red winemaking, with pre-fermentation maceration for the Merlot and Agiorgitiko and post-fermentation maceration for the Cabernet. Fermentation temperatures up to 28°C. The young wine is aged for approximately 12 months in French and American oak barrels.
Vineyards: Estate-owned and long-term partner vineyards in Macedonia and the Peloponnese. Vineyard yields of up to 900 kg per stremma.
Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon 40%, Merlot 30%, Agiorgitiko 30%.
