Liatiko & Mandilari
Liatiko is a red grape native to Crete, used for both dry reds and sweet wines made from sun-dried grapes. Its wines tend towards a relatively pale garnet colour, ripe red fruit and spice, with a rounded palate and softer tannins.
Mandilaria, also known as Mandilari, is a red grape of Crete and the Aegean islands. It brings deep colour, ripe fruit character and pronounced tannins. Often blended with softer varieties, it can also make distinctive single-variety reds and rosés.
