Origin

Produced in the Epirus region of northwestern Greece, Katogi Averoff Red is crafted at the historic Katogi Averoff winery, renowned for its dedication to quality and tradition.

Variety

This red wine is primarily made from the indigenous Greek grape varieties, including Limnio and Negoska, which contribute to its distinctive character and complexity.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and varietal aromas. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels to develop structure and depth before bottling.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Deep ruby red color with garnet hues.
  • Aroma: Intense bouquet of ripe red fruits, spices, and subtle oak nuances.
  • Palate: Medium to full-bodied with balanced acidity and smooth tannins, offering flavors of cherry, plum, and hints of vanilla and tobacco.
  • Finish: Long and elegant finish with persistent fruity and spicy notes.

Food pairings

Katogi Averoff Red pairs excellently with a variety of dishes, enhancing both traditional and contemporary cuisine.

  • Grilled red meats such as lamb and beef
  • Hearty stews and casseroles
  • Mature cheeses like aged Gouda or Manchego
  • Rich pasta dishes with tomato-based sauces
