Papaioannou Mikroklima (6 bottle minimum)

Mikroklima is crafted from 75-year-old Agiorgitiko (St. George) vines and aged for 20 months in oak barrels, resulting in a polished and elegant expression of the variety. This rich red wine pushes the boundaries of Agiorgitiko, showcasing a deep black-red colour with remarkable freshness on the nose. Aromas of blackcurrant, spices, and subtle tobacco notes emerge, creating a complex bouquet. On the palate, it is generous and full-bodied, with excellent structure and a long, satisfying finish.
