Estate Petrakopoulos Mov 750ml
Purple, almost black color that stains the glass and in the mouth a burst of condensation. It is the ultimate expression of Mavrodafni.
A single 60-year-old vineyard, pre-leaf dry, gives 800 valuable bottles of what the Kefalonian vineyard has to show.
An acreage yield that does not exceed 500 kg and vinification with the use of whole bunches, for better extraction, give a perfectly concentrated juice that carries the intense character of Mavrodafni.
Its maturation takes place in French oak barrels of 300 liters for 2 years and its bottling with minimal interventions.
The result is the least impressive.
Our advice is to transfer it to a carafe and have on your plate a game or a cooked beef steak.
The glass is opaque purple, almost black.
Nose intense and characteristic.
The aromas of ripe black fruits are mixed with animal hints of skin, sweet spices and flowers such as violet and lavender.
Hints of eucalyptus and herbs complete the special aromatic ensemble.
In the mouth it has a medium to full body, sharp acidity and intense but well-worked tannins.
Plum, sour cherry, bilberry, raspberry, cocoa, nutmeg, allspice, iodine, eucalyptus, tea and animal hints are harmoniously intertwined in a delicious carousel.
Aftertaste that persists.
