Natalie's Score: 90/100

A Mavrodaphne and Mavro Kalavritino red wine blend aged for 24 months in mostly new French oak barrels and quite warming at 14.5% alcohol. Needs a bit more time in cellar or decant two hours prior to pouring with rich roast lamb dishes. Dark cherry, fresh herbs, earthy dark spice and firm tannins on this mouth-watering, medium-plus-bodied red wine blend.

Dry Red food pairings: lamb shish kebab, spanakopita, roast veal.

From the Achaia wine region, Domain Mega Spileo Grand Cave 2013 is a full-bodied 60% Mavrodaphne, 40% Mavro Kalavritino red blend fragrant with ripe red, dark fruits and pepper spice aromas on the nose.
