Tripotamos Vineyards XBOURGO red 2017
(91)
Blend of 70% Mavrotragano and 30% Mavrothiliko. Crushed peppercorns, juicy blackberries and superb oak on the nose. Textural, more elegant than rich (alcohol at 13.9%) with nicely played tannins and a strong umami character on the finish. Fascinating! Impressive maiden effort from a great terroir next to Exombourgo rock.
