Carola Price rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Clear and purple red. Nose of raspberry, plum, cedar, dark chocolate. Flavours of red cherry, mint leaves, dark chocolate and plum with a slight earthiness. Medium bodied and the fruit is so well integrated to the hint of oak. Well done! Great wine for the price and a good introduction to Greek reds. Easily pair this with grilled lamb or pork souvlaki, meat sauce, and firm cheeses with a little fruitiness to them, like Avonlea Cheddar.

rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Smoky, cedar, chocolate, and plum aromas, this Greek red is more integrated and balanced than others tasted today. Dark berries and mocha flavours, this blend is dry with good acidity and integrated tannins.
Nicole Lewis rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Wow! What a Greek gem for the price! A garnet beauty offering aromas of rose petals, black cherry and gently toasted oak. The palate replays these flavours with a lovely fruitiness, acidity and gentle tannins.

I would pair this with a spaghetti and meat sauce dish.

Great value wine. Smokey and herbaceous aromas on this medium bodied wine. Red fruit flavours, prominent cherry noted, and generous acidity. Would serve slightly chilled accompanied with puff pastry filled with soft cheese.
Lori Kilmartin WSET3 rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Made with the most widely planted grape in Greece - Agiorgitiko. Inviting aromas of cocoa, plums and a dusky smoke.Well balanced tannins, fruit and acidity. Smooth mouthfeel and a medium finish. Tasted July 24, 2016
Douglas McMillan rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Aromas of raspberry, roses, milk chocolate, and plum. Light bodied and smooth, with a little bit of young tannin. The flavour is juicy cherry and raspberry. Medium raspberry and strawberry finish. Pair with soft cheeses.
Jacky Blisson rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Pretty, translucent ruby colour. Vibrant raspberry, floral and cherry aromas. Smooth and rounded on the palate, with more of the same fruit-driven flavours. Stops short, with warming alcohol on the finish.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
