Mavrotragano Red 2023

Mavrotragano Red by Gavala is produced in Greece, specifically from the island of Santorini, known for its unique volcanic terroir and traditional winemaking heritage.

This wine is made exclusively from the Mavrotragano grape, an indigenous Greek red grape variety native to Santorini, prized for its deep color and rich tannins.

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo controlled fermentation to preserve the varietal character. The wine is aged in oak barrels to develop complexity and structure, reflecting traditional and modern winemaking techniques practiced by Gavala.
