Impressive, deep pink color in the glass. The nose is dominated by strawberry, stone cherry and citrus aromas, mainly bitter orange and orange peel, combined beautifully with sweet tomato, honey, cinnamon and herbal aromas of mint. On the palate, it is intense, with crisp acidity and a hint of tannins that adds complexity. The aromas of the nose are more pronounced in the mouth with strawberry, tomato, cinnamon, and marjoram dominating. The long-lasting aftertaste leaves the orange peel in the palate for quite a while. You can pair with sushi, with traditional Greek cuisine dishes like stuffed vegetables or with grilled shrimps with prosciutto.

Negoska
This rare Greek variety from the Northern part of the country produces rich, fruity and smooth red wines. Due to its low acidity and soft tannins, it also nicely complements bold and acidic Xinomavro grape.
Producer
Tatsis
Originally from Ano Vodeno of Eastern Romilia, an area steeped in viticulture, the refugee Tatsis grandfathers chose as their place of settlement during the population exchange of 1924 the small town of Goumenissa, an already developed viticultural centre that lies at the foot of Mountain Paiko, 65 km away from Thessaloniki. Since 1998 the vineyard is being cultivated and certified according to the regulations of organic farming and since 2002 follows the biodynamical principles. The vineyards are found on the hillock of Libaskerit and Gerakona, an ideal position for viticulture and the vines grow on calcareous, non-irrigated soil yielding a very modest production of about 3 to 7t/ha. All grapes come from the Estate, where also vinification and maturation take place.
