Tasting Note

Deep ruby red in colour. The nose is expressive and well balanced between red fruit and oak influence, with aromas of cherry and sour cherry complemented by notes of tobacco, caramel and clove, and a subtle herbal character in the background. The palate is full leading to a long, persistent finish.

Product Notes

Domaine Sigalas Mavrotragano is an exquisite red wine hailing from the sunny Greek island of Santorini. This luxuriant wine is made from the rare Mavrotragano grape, which yields a full-bodied and potent blend. Its rich, complex taste profile boasts discernable notes of plum, strawberry, and cherry, with undertones of spice and chocolate. Aged in French oak barrels, the wine carries a delightful velvety texture and an ingratiating earthy aroma. Ideal for gastronomic pairings, it particularly complements red meats and matured cheeses. With its powerful flavour combinations and vibrant finish, Domaine Sigalas Mavrotragano is an impassioned tribute to traditional Greek winemaking.
