Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Agiorgitiko

2023

The varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Agiorgitiko, from which Amethystos Red is produced, are cultivated in the vineyards of Adriani, on a hillside at an altitude of 200–300 meters, with a northern exposure. The soil is alkaline and clayey, while planting density reaches 4,000 vines/ha. The climate is Mediterranean, with temperatures ranging from -5°C in winter to 36°C in summer. Harvest began on August 30 and was completed on October 16, with yields of 6–8 tn/ha.

Bright and dense, with an inviting purple-red hue. The nose reveals layers of red forest fruits, cherry and plum, delicately interwoven with hints of spice. On the palate, it is velvety and well-structured, with balanced acidity, mature tannins and a long, lingering finish.

Dry

After careful reception and de-stemming, the grapes are gently crushed and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine then undergoes malolactic fermentation, followed by 12 months of barrel ageing, 25% of which is in new oak, before being bottled to preserve its character and elegance.
