THE MAGNIFICENT AGED WINE WITH THE TIMELESS SECRETS

Messenicolas is one of those places that steal your heart at first sight.

The abundant vineyards and verdant slopes, the peaceful silence that prevails and the beauty of simplicity are reflected in this rare wine.

The best crops of the Black Messenicola variety are carefully selected and picked to make the Collectors’ MESSENICOLA, a limited production wine released only in 1,000 1.5 l magnums at a time.

Cellar it for up to 25 years and open it to reveal its age-old secrets when celebrating a very special occasion.

ORIGIN: Messenicolas, Karditsa

VARIETY: Black Messenicola 70% – Syrah & Carignan 30%

TYPE: Dry Red Wine

CATEGORY: Messenicola Protected Designation of Origin (PDO

COLOUR & AROMA: The aroma of violets, ripe fruit (date, cherry, wild raspberry) and chestnut dons the ruby-red stole of the spicy and robust Syrah and seductive Carignan to create a discretely flavoured mature wine with elegant tannins and a fine balance.

AGEING: The wine is aged for at least two years (24 months) in French oak barrels, bringing out the highlights that make this wine so special once in the glass.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Pairs well with roasted red meats, game and red sauces, cold cuts, and fruits such as apple and pear.

SERVING TEMPERATURE: Let it breathe for 15 minutes and serve at 18 °C.

Available in 1.5 l bottles.
