Body:
"Alargo" means "far away" and the label illustrates a figure of a Cretan man looking into the distance towards his homeland.
Color
Very dark-red color, close to Tyrian red.
Aromas
It has a complex aromatic bouquet that is reminiscent of plum, dark cherry jam, vanilla, dried ham and dark
chocolate.
The wine has an overabundant flavor profile which –as time passes becomes richer.
It has a thick taste, with juicy tannins and a long lasting, spicy aftertaste.
Pair it with
Red meat with rich sauces, hunting, pork shank and the
traditional Italian dish "osso buco".
It would equally well accompany lobster cooked in red wine sauce or red tuna fillet, cooked on the grill.
