Product Notes

Dougos Winery Rapsani wine is an authentic Greek product, hailing from the mystical slopes of Mount Olympus. The blend of indigenous Xinomavro, Krassato and Stavroto grapes results in a sumptuous red wine that is full-bodied and rich. It possesses a tantalising bouquet of red fruits, intertwined with hints of spice and a lingering, palatable finish of oak and vanilla. This wine is celebrated for its robust structure and balanced acidity, making it an exceptional accompaniment to hearty meat dishes and mature cheeses. A glass of Dougos Winery Rapsani promises not just a sip, but an entire Greek experience.
