Description

Karas’s Classic Red is a blend of estate grown European grape varieties. The 2015 mix is 30% Syrah, 30% Tannat, 15% Petit Verdot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 10% Montepulciano and a dash of Khndoghni. Fermented in steel tanks and bottled without any time in oak.

This wine won a Silver Medal at the 2017 Decanter Magazine World Wine Awards and received a Wine Advocate score of 87 in issue 231.

Tasting Notes: Dark red fruit, a well made and nicely balanced wine. Not quite as concentrated as the 2014.
