Mavrotragano is a Greek blue grape. You rarely see it. The name literally means "black and sleek." If you do find it in your glass, you'll experience a spicy wine with plenty of cherry fruit, fresh acidity, and substantial tannins.
Mavrotragano grows primarily on the Greek island of Santorini, where it is cultivated in volcanic vineyards. Historically, it was used exclusively for sweet wines. Today, some winemakers also use it to make dry red wines. This requires considerable skill, as Mavrotragano is a robust grape. During vinification, the winemaker must be careful not to develop too much tannin, and it is also advisable not to drink it too young.
We currently have one wine made from the Mavrotragano grape in our range. You can view our Mavrotragano wine here.
