A freeloader amongst the wines from Serbia my wife brought me back. It's actually a Greek wine made by a monastery on Mount Athos. And it's a Bordeaux blend to top it off (cabernet Sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot). It smells like a very well born Saint Emilion wine... Really, blind I would have called saint emilion grand cru classé. Cassis, meat juice, earthy notes like clay, tobacco leaves, cigar... Wow this is great! The palate is wonderful, it has all you need in great right bank bordeaux: good acid drive, great length and width, cassis and tobacco notes all along, a soft, velvety mouthfeel that develops into a very noble grain that turns into mocha and coffee in the rear. The tannic wall in the rear is rich, intense and drying but also grainy and a giving a thicker, grainier feel which is not unlike the ones I know from saint emilion. Great concentration and focus, nice smokey and meaty notes, that umami thing that I associate even more with pomerols. Wow this is really great! I didn't expect something like this from Greece! — 9 months ago

Fifth bottle of our Greece exploration. Chalkidiki region, Limnion grape. Very round, smooth, fruity. Nice wine but missing some acids, tightness. I still have a Mount Athos with a Limnion/Cab Sauv blend which hopefully will be more into my palate. — 6 years ago

Again a stunning Greek wine based on Limnio and Cab Sauv. Limnio giving freshness and fruit, Cabernet providing structure and more secondary notes. Good stuff! — 4 years ago

Sixth and last bottle of our Greece exploration. Mount Athos region and Cab Sauv/Limnio blend. Terrific wine, delivering exactly what I was missing in the 100% Limnio. Fruit forward, quite tannic and lots of drinking pleasure. Greece has certainly got a spot in my drinking preference. Next step: the higher end wines from Greece! — 6 years ago
