Potamida Liatiko Red 2018 – Idaia Winery

The Philosophy

The fruit is sourced from a single privately owned vineyard, with old vines in the Potamida area. It is an idiosyncratic wine that expresses the rustic aspect of Liatiko grape variety with ripe sweet aromas, highlighting the uniqueness of the Cretan terroir. With its highly gastronomic profile, this wine is the perfect accompaniment to exceptional dishes and delicacies.

Flavor Characteristics

Pale red-orange color. Complex and ripe aroma of sweet spices such as clove and cardamom, herbs, jammy fruits reminiscent of cherries and figs along with hints of pepper, tobacco and leather. Rich and robust flavor, but at the same time elegant with high -but very well integrated- alcohol and a long spicy aftertaste. Enjoy it with white and red meats cooked with dried fruit, honey or some other sweet sauce, stew, fine cuts of veal, mushroom risotto, mature cheeses, cured meats.
