Zambartas Mataro-Yianoudi

This is a blend of Mataro and Yiannoudi (according to winemaker Zambartas you spell it with just one 'n'). The former we know better as Mourvèdre or Monastrell. The latter is a rare Cypriot grape. Zambartas harvested them on the chalky western flank of the Troödos mountains.

This Mediterranean wine has a pleasant aroma of elderberries, very ripe strawberries and liquorice sweets. On the palate it is soft and smooth, with the ripe fruit of plums, blackcurrants and strawberry. You can recognise the Cypriot sun in this glass, along with dried herbs and a sliver of tannin.
