Krasato (or Krassato) is a relatively unknown Greek wine grape. Krasato produces soft, fairly powerful wines with a fair amount of tannin. However, Greeks rarely, if ever, make wines from Krasato alone. It is usually blended with other grapes.
Krasato grows at the foot of Mount Olympus, near the Greek city of Thessaloniki in the Thessaly wine region. There, red wines are made according to the rules of the Greek appellation Rapsáni. These rules dictate that the wine must be made from equal parts Xynómavro, Krasato, and Stavroto. In Rapsáni, these are typically grown interspersed in the same vineyard. Krasato is easier to drink than the (difficult) Xynómavro, making Rapsáni easier to drink and more digestible.
We currently have one wine made from the Krasato grape in our range. You can view our Krasato wine here.
