Tasting Note

Light red colour with purple highlights, relatively clear. The wine shows a thin layer of sediment, as it has not been filtered. It was fermented and matured in amphoras, which contributed to bring out the original aromas of the variety, and developing simultaneously wonderful aromas of oxidative aging. Skin contact lasted for 30 days providing the wine with rich tannic structure, while the slow exchange of oxygen from the amphora's pores provided it with a very deep and rich texture. Earthy aromas and noticeable minerality. Dried plum, fig and a blend of herbs . In the mouth taste of maraschino cherry, black and red berries, intense tannins, but also fresh acidity.

Product Notes

Kamara Keramos Amphora Red wine is an exceptional Greek red blend showcasing a captivating integration of indigenous varieties. This exquisite wine boasts a vibrant ruby colour and an intense aromatic bouquet of ripe, wild berries, earthy hints and nuanced herbal notes. Matured in terracotta amphorae, it offers an innovative, yet traditional wine-making approach that truly enhances the wine's complexity. On the palate, it unfolds into rich, robust flavours of sun-ripened fruits, underlaid by a Tang of spiciness and rounded off with subtly integrated tannins. A medley of savoury elegance and rustic sophistication, it's a stunning reflection of Greece's winemaking heritage.
