$29.25

The Moraitis Paros Red Reserve 2018 is a distinguished red wine from the Cyclades, Aegean Sea, Greece. It is crafted from a blend of 75% Mandilaria and 25% Monemvassia grapes, sourced from strictly selected mountainous vineyards in the regions of Lefkes, Thapsana, and Stavros. This wine exhibits a bright ruby color with vivid garnet reflections, reminiscent of a rustic Tuscan red. Its rich profile is marked by 155 mentions of oaky notes, including oak, chocolate, and vanilla. The wine-making process includes co-fermentation of the deep red Mandilaria and the aromatic white Monemvassia, followed by ageing for 16 months in French oak barrels and at least 8 months in the bottle. On the palate, it presents ripe, dusty cherry aromatics, bold dark fruit flavors, and gripping tannins, making it an ideal choice for pairing with dinner. The alcohol content is 12.5%
