THE SQUARE LOGIC THAT FELL IN LOVE WITH PASSION...

The Black Messenicola variety, the quality of which makes its birthplace proud, offers wine connoisseurs the Messenicola - Karditsa Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) wine.

SILKY, MATURE, MYSTICAL

With the floral nose of a white wine and a tender, Northern European mouth, made from the like-named variety grown in Messenicolas, this wine is an ambassador for Greek wines throughout the world.

Monsieur Nicolas, for whom it was named, would be very proud of that today.

With the flavor and aroma of the legendary Black Messenicola grape and a 30% content of the French Syrah and Carignan varieties, the Messenicola is now recognized as an innovative wine with a unique personality that centuries later has rightfully earned a place at the top.

This mystical wine, with the centuries-long history and red appeal, is available in two sizes: the Messenicola in the square bottle of 750 ml and the Messenicola Magnum of 1.5 l.

The wine ritual at its best.
