Acheon 'Laura Nobile' Mavrodaphne
Produced from a single vineyard of 30-year-old Mavrodaphne grapes using indigenous, wild yeast fermentation. Aged in a mixture of American and French oak for 15 months and bottled unfiltered. Attractive mid-brick red colour, with aromas of gently toasted nuts, hints of vanilla, and a warm wild fruit compote. The flavours are reminiscent of a blend of mature Barolo and Barbera—very subtle, yet with plenty of velvety power. Notes of liquorice and allspice linger with soft red fruit and a touch of cigar box. Against a background of gentle acidity and tannin, this is a red to enjoy with robust flavours.

Acheon Winery, Aigialeia, Peloponnese
Acheon Winery is a small, family-owned winery, run by two sisters – Sosanna and Katerina. Their focus is on the vinification of indigenous grape varieties such as the Roditis and Sideritis, cultivated from the seaside at Aigio to the mountainous region of Aigialeia. Following the traditional winemaking passed down the generations, which we now call minimal intervention, the sisters aim to produce top quality wines from indigenous Greek varieties that naturally express the terroir and history of the region.
