Mångata Mavroudi 2021 is a dry Greek red from Kontogiannis in Corinthia, made from the native Mavroudi grape, at 13% ABV.
It is an organic, natural-style wine from old Mavroudi vines, fermented with wild yeast in stainless steel.
Mavroudi is a rare dark-skinned Greek variety, and Mångata shows it in a fresh, unoaked style.
A great pick for adventurous red wine drinkers and lovers of Greek wine.
Good wine rewards a little care in serving. Whites and rosés show best chilled to around 45 to 50°F, while reds are at their most expressive slightly below room temperature, around 60 to 65°F. Opening the bottle and letting it breathe for a few minutes, or pouring it into a decanter, helps the aromas open up.
