Can Kefalonia island as wine zone, is most famous for the white wines of the past year, however, has shown that the unique terroir can give very very red. The Syrah Gentilini is a wine that can stand next to a complex, spicy dishes with a focus on red meat, and promises a captivating taste combinations that will satisfy even the most discerning palates.

Medium-bodied Syrah
Review by Charl ENGELA (Posted on 06/11/2014)
-
Quality Price Typical of warm-climate reds, not as full-bodied as some Syrah (which can be an advantage). Deep plum colour, blackberry nose; rich prunes in the mouth, but with a delicate feel; a dusky aftertaste reminiscent of good Pinotage, but not unpleasant. Good for grilled meats and hard cheeses.
