Domaine Sigalas MM Mavrotragano - Mandilaria Red Blend 2021

"A bright yellow-amber color turning to gold. A rich bouquet of honey underpinned by plenty of lemon and orange peel scents. honey on the palate with some apricot fruit is met by good, sturdy acidity around the mid-palate that carries the sweet honey and lemon flavors through to a long, extended finish." —importer

"Assyrtiko is known for its relatively high natural acidity. This wine is true to character, with flavors of citrus, lemongrass and stone fruit. It is medium-bodied and elegant with great finesse." —winemaker

"A historical sweet dessert wine made from crushed grapes that are fermented until the process stops naturally due to the high sugar content. The must is then aged in oak barrels for a minimum of two years. Similar to the solera system, the barrels are never completely emptied. New juice is added to the barrel containing old juice and the process begins again. A sweet wine with a powerful bouquet filled with dried fruits, spices and oak. It is luscious and full-bodied." —winemaker

"Fre Red Blend offers a deep ruby color and ripe, black cherry scented aromas. Smooth and rich, it offers plenty of bright, grape, and cherry fruit with an intriguing smoky flavor. Fre Red Blend ends with a long, fruity, lingering finish. This alcohol removed wine is delightful on its own or paired with salmon, turkey, chicken and ham dishes, as well as pasta, pizza, and grilled meats." —producer
