2014 vintage. Blend of Voskèak and Garandmak from old ungrafted high altitude vineyards (1400 m.).Fermentation with native yeast in rough concrete vats, followed by 11 months ageing in concrete. Flowers and fresh herbs in the nose. High acidity, good concentration, not as complex as the excellent red wines from this estate, but well-made if a bit expensive at 28 euro. I do feel that this wine could progress with a few years of bottle age, but have no experience with these wines.

Aromatic nose with this 50/50 blend of two varietals that I'll never remember the names of. Stinky flowers and minerality, wet slate. Some rotty funk. Good acid to the finish, spicy. Nice wine.
