Dark Wine Great Nemea Dry Red Wine 750ml
/ package
Περιγραφή
Robust aging red wine. It is based on a blend that marries the spicy scherzo of Agiorgitikos with the austere power of Cabernet Sauvignon, in the warm and vanilla embrace of the oak barrel that housed them during its 20-month aging. Quality label for large wine cellars or fine cellars.
A "Great" wine, name and thing, with the signature of Giorgos Skouras. Exquisite and rich on all levels, it is a red wine that imposes itself on the table, creating atmosphere and matching perfectly with the rich dishes of a beautiful meal.
