This is a bold red wine wreathed in red currant and raspberry flavours, with firm tannins and an exuberant finish. It entices with a spicy nose and a pleasant whiff of cigar-box wood and tobacco. The palate is rich, complex and chockfull of red fruit typical for the variety.
Trilogia is a vin-de-garde, and ages 15 to 25 years. It pairs perfectly with roasted meat, rotisserie, cold cuts and smoked cheeses.
Nestled in an unspoiled valley in the prefecture of Ilia, in the northwest part of the Peloponnese, lays the organic vineyard of Ktima Dio Ipsi, a name inspired by its distinctive topography which means Two Heights Estate.
Situated on the site of ancient Ilida opposite the island of Zakynthos, this unique vineyard rolls like a wave over two facing slopes with different altitudes. The soil type is a mix of sand, limestone and clay with a high content of shells, which affirms that this land rose from the sea millions of years ago.
The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were picked at the end of August. The manual harvest yielded a small crop of 2500 to 4000 kg/ha. The destemmed and crushed grapes fermented in stainless steel tanks, and after a prolonged maceration period, the wine reposed in new French oak barrels for 15 months.
