Wine Expert Note:

This Samos Grand Cru is a deep, complex wine with a nose of ripe yellow fruits, figs, and honey. On the palate, notes of dried apricot and caramel emerge, supported by balanced acidity and a hint of spice. The finish is long and lingering, with an elegant hint of white chocolate. Overall, this is a truly remarkable wine that is sure to please even the most discerning of wine drinkers.
