Round and fleshy reds with a velvety texture, showing aromas of ripe plum, black cherry, cocoa and truffle notes with age. Supple tannins, generous alcohol, indulgent finish. Pillar of Libournais (Pomerol with Pétrus, Saint-Émilion with Cheval Blanc and Ausone) and signature of Super Tuscans, Italian Wales and Washington State. A cross of Cabernet Franc × Magdeleine Noire, France's most planted red variety.
Cyprus's largest wine region on the southern slopes of the Troodos around Limassol (Krasochoria). Signature native grapes. Mavro in light, approachable red with signature notes of cherry, ripe plum, Mediterranean herbs and a spicy touch, supple tannins. Xynisteri star in white: dry and mineral (citrus, green apple, herbs, saline touch), taut, thirst-quenching palate.
