2001 Rapsani Réserve Epilegmenos
Location: The vineyards of Rapsani lie on the southern slopes of Mount Olympus , the Mountain of the Gods. Specific vineyard sites because of the soil, microclimate conditions and cultivation techniques, have the ability to create superior grapes. If the growing season is perfect, only the finest parcels are selected. These grapes, under the guidance of our expert winemakers, will give an outstanding wine.
Varietal composition: The Greek (indigenous) Xinomavro (34%), Krassato (33%) and Stavroto (33%).
Ageing: In small French ( Allier ) 300 L. new oak barrels for at least 12 months and at least another 12 in bottle (minimum ageing period 3 years). A wine with great ageing potential, it will continue to evolve and achieve extra depth of character.
Winemaker's notes : An elegant wine, deep purple-red in colour, with a juicy blackcurrant flavour and hints of liquorice richness. Velvety, lush, echoing nicely on the graceful finish.
Serving suggestions: A fine accompaniment to game and other dark red meats with rich and spicy sauces. An impressive glassful on its own, it tastes delicious with roasts, poultry and full-flavoured cheeses.
