July closes with a tasting that the public insistently asked for in view of the August heat.

In our new column TASTED & EVALUATED we tasted the rosé wine of the Theopetra Estate. The captivating blend of the unique Limniona variety and the international Syrah variety comes from PGI Meteora.

Appearance: clear, medium plus intensity, pinkish in colour

Nose: Clean, medium intensity with primary intense fruity aromas of strawberry, blackberry, sweet aromas of blackcurrant jam. Secondary vanilla, caramel. Tertiary hints of spices and light vegetal notes.

Mouth: Dry, crisp acidity, soft tannins. Alcohol moderate plus 13.5%. Primarily intense aromas of fresh red fruits, strawberry, red cherry, secondarily sweet aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry. Tertiary herbal aromas, hints of mint. Medium (+) fruity aftertaste.

Quality: Excellent

Drinkability level: can be consumed now but has the potential to age for 2-3 years.

Pair with pasta with tomato sauce, pastitsio, moussaka, fried prawns, pizza, fruit salads and red fruit desserts such as pavlova. It can be pleasantly eaten on its own as an aperitif.
