Meltemi Red 2024

Produced in Greece by Moraitis Winery, located in the region of Thessaly, known for its favorable climate and terroir for quality red wine production.

Meltemi Red is typically a blend of indigenous Greek grape varieties, often including Agiorgitiko and Xinomavro, which are renowned for their rich color and balanced tannins.

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo controlled fermentation at low temperatures to preserve aromatic complexity. The wine is aged in oak barrels to enhance structure and flavor depth before bottling.
