Mavrotragano 2014, Santo Wines

Mavrotragano 2014, Santo Wines

Date Tasted: 5/2020

Ageing led this wine to be well balanced and gain resolved tannins. 

Appearance: Medium garnet colour.

Nose: It has a medium intensity with mostly black fruits like plum, cherry, fig and raisin in a combination of dried character and jamminess.

Palate: Leather, tar and earthy notes appear on the palate, medium body, medium acidity, the alcohol high but well defined, soft tannins and prolonged sweet aftertaste.  

Drink or Hold: It is ready to drink now but well promising for the next few years. 

Food Pairing: It paired with different barbeque meats, and the better combination was with chicken, followed by beef, lamb chops and pork.
