Mavrodaphne is one of Greece’s most respected black grape varieties, capable of producing exceptional, world-class wines. Particularly noteworthy is the Mov by Petrakopoulos, which showcases the grape's potential alongside the region's pre-phylloxera vine treasures. Predominantly cultivated in the Peloponnese and Cephalonia, Mavrodaphne is often blended with other local varieties, resulting in complex, rich red wines. With its vibrant flavours and captivating aromatic profile, this wine is an exquisite companion to slow-roasted goat and can age beautifully in the cellar for several years.

Les Fortes de Latour is the second label of Château Latour. It is a common practice in the Bordeaux region of all the major Château to produce a second less expensive label than the Grand Vin yet produced with the same meticulous care as the Grand Vin, both in the vineyard and in the winery. The main differences between the second label and the Grand Vin are the grapes' origin (young vines or less prominent plots), the new oak proportion and usually the higher proportion of Merlot in the final blend.

Even now, after I have tasted the Les Fortes de Latour, I struggle to believe that it was in such an excellent condition. After all, it is a 30-year-old wine!
