Cuvee
From the vineyards of Lantides Estate in Asprocampos & Koutsi of Nemea Peloponnese (700m), the outcome is a unique and elegant wine of three great varieties, where they remain for 24 months in oak barrels. After bottling they will age in the underground cellars of the winery for 12 months. A special wine with rich and complex features, aromas and remarkable aftertaste. Aromatic, it displays mature red fruit of the forest, plenty of skin and ash with an overlay of the fruit of the Agiorgitiko variety, where it completes this particular palette. In taste, the intensity of wood is dominant with the beautiful tannins to complement this beautiful wine.
