Strong notes of late harvest wild berries and black cherries. Great with Greek salad and pork chops. Medium tannins, very juicy finish. — 6 months ago
Popped and poured; consumed over an hour. The 2018 Nostros Blend is an interesting combination of Rhône varieties. A GSM with a touch of Roussanne. The wine pours a deep garnet color with medium+ viscosity; faint staining of tears. On the nose, a combination of ripe and stewed red, black and blue fruits, oiled leather ball glove, black pepper, olive tapenade, salmiakki, tomato leaf, dry rocky minerals and just a hint of warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium (+?) tannin, medium acid. Alcohol is medium + but comes across a touch hot. Finish is long and spicy. My favorite red so far from Manousakis. Should drink well through the end of the decade. I can sense Laurence Féraud’s hand on this ❤️ — 2 years ago
Full bodied, but very fresh and mineral. Wonderful — 8 months ago
Had this one with Sushi, paired really nicely. There is a bit of leather base note and a very slight hint of honey at the top. The wine hasa color, not dissimilar to olive oil had me thinking about Greece the whole time. I’m a fan. — 6 months ago
