Muses Estate (Ktima Mousson)
Mouhtaro
Greece
Vintage 2014 / On discovery trips I have dissapointments but also fantastic finds. Our local greek wineseller Kostas ❤️ told me to try this wine from the curious grape Mouhtaro. Rescued thanks to Athanasios Zacharias, only grown in the Valley of the Muses. It’s absolute fantastic 💥💥💥 A smell like a ripened St Estephe: earthy, flint, só rich with impressions of chocolate, vannilla,mocca combined with red fruit like cherries springing up... and I did not mention the spicyness (reminded me of Musar Libanon). The taste is very compelling, smooth and insidious easy drinking. 🙃 I bow my head deeply for the winemaker! / Paired with grilled Tunafish and pepper bell with capers / Trouvaille!!
