MOUHTARO | Multi-Awarded, rare variety, Greek red wine, 14% alc | 90% Parker rating

MOUHTARO is the name of a very rare red grape, grown exclusively in the area of Askri, in Central Greece. Muses Estate was the first winery to revive this variety thanks to the efforts of its founder Athanasios Zacharias and the only one to have a 100% Mouhtaro bottle. The most ‘velvet’ red wine we have ever tried. 90% Parker rated.

Deep purple color, with aromas of ripe red fruits and spices, a full body, mild, silky tannins and a pronounced acidity.

AGEING: 12 months in 2 & 3 years used oak barrels 225l and 6 months in bottle before launch.
DURATION: It is recommended for long maturation, beyond 10 years.

VINE-GROWING: Vines are cultivated according to the principles of integrated agriculture, which ensures protection for the environment, the consumer and the people working in the fields. Most of the varieties are planted in linear vineyards trained in double cordon royat. All of the vines are planted in densely rows, a technique which results in lower yields per vine and, therefore, higher quality grapes.

VINEYARD SLOPE: The vineyards are located at an altitude between 450 and 550m and have a slope between 3 and 7%.
HARMONY: Ideally suited to game or lamb, pasta in red sauce and yellow hard cheese.
