WINE DESCRIPTION
Tsantali Rapsani is a premium red wine produced by Tsantali Winery in the Rapsani appellation of Greece. The vineyards are located on the slopes of Mount Olympus, at an altitude of 250-800 meters, where the vines benefit from the cool mountain air and the mineral-rich soil. The wine is made from a blend of three indigenous grape varieties: Xinomavro, Krassato, and Stavroto, which are handpicked and carefully selected. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including long maceration and aging in oak barrels, resulting in a complex and elegant wine with a deep ruby color, aromas of red fruits, spices, and herbs, and a full-bodied, velvety palate with a long finish. Tsantali Rapsani is a perfect match for grilled meats, stews, and mature cheeses.
