Klados Heritage 2911/24 – Liatiko
An elegant and characterful red wine from the indigenous Cretan grape Liatiko, one of the island's oldest varieties. Hailing from the vineyards of Pyrgos Monofatsi, this wine reflects the rich tradition and warm terroir of Crete.
The wine has a bright, light ruby red color. On the nose, a complex and refined aroma of cherries, strawberries, and mulberry unfolds, complemented by subtle spicy notes and a hint of vanilla from the oak aging. On the palate, the wine is full and round, with a beautiful balance between alcohol, fresh acidity, and soft tannins. The finish is long, intense, and harmonious.
The grapes are hand-picked and undergo classic red wine vinification, followed by skin maceration for 12 to 15 days. The wine then matures for approximately 10 months in French oak barrels and further develops for about 5 more months in the bottle. This ensures extra complexity, structure, and a refined finish.
Perfect with appetizers, traditional Greek dishes, savory tarts, poultry with red sauce, pasta with minced meat, and a wide variety of cheeses.
Serving temperature: 14–16°C
