Profile

Description

Deep ruby in colour. Expressive black fruits, with red pepper, black tea, cinnamon, and all spice. Herbal and savoury. Made from an indigenous varietal from Greece and balanced out with French varieties Cabernet and Grenache. Nestor Winery S.A. is relatively new on the scene: first establishing itself in 2015. A partnership between the Nestor Agricultural & Winemaking Cooperative of Messina and the Spyros Lafanzania Family who own the Lafazanis Winery in Nemea, Corinthia in hopes of re-establishing the terroir of Messina to the international wine stage. 

Pairing

Grilled pork, juicy hamburgers, and tangy sheep's cheese.

Aromas and Flavours

Blackberry

A little sweet, a little tart, this black fruit is rather quiet but persistent.

Bell pepper

Fresh green, herbaceous notes in wine - a little is desired, a lot, not so much.

Herbs

Your windowsill herb garden gives off a lovely herbal smell every time you walk by.

Tea

A warm cup of Earl grey tea - with floral scents and slightly earthy notes.

Cinnamon

The scent of freshly baked cinnamon rolls, straight out of the oven - ooey gooey goodness!
