In the beautiful vineyard of Ktima Alpha in Amyntaio, the spicy Syrah met the unruly local Xinomavro. To avoid extremes in such an explosive marriage, Merlot came to round the edges with its known velvety touch. All this happens in every bottle of the label Ktima Alpha Red, one of the top Greek red wines that are particularly popular in the Greek market and at the same time represent Greek wine with merit in international competitions and the world's largest exhibitions. Choose it to accompany the finest meat dishes, whether at home or at a restaurant. If you manage to resist the temptation and keep it for further aging… you deserve congratulations!...
