Concentrated but not heavy: medium-bodied, vibrant and balanced, finishing long and full-flavoured. Cabernet Sauvignon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe producer\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKtima Biblia Chora is the creation of Vassilis Tsaktsarlis and Vangelis Gerovassiliou, and takes its name from the ancient Greek 'Land of the Sacred Vine'. The estate lies at 380 metres on the cool slopes of Mount Pangeon at Kokkinochori near Kavala, where maritime air off the Aegean and cold night air spilling down the mountain draw ripening out. The 80-hectare vineyard was planted in 1998, has been farmed organically from the start and is certified organic; the winery followed in 2001. The grapes were hand-picked, destemmed and crushed, fermented in stainless steel with selected yeast, put through malolactic conversion, then matured for twelve months in 225-litre French oak barrels, half of them new. The 2021 season began late in mid-April, cool and wet until June, before intense unbroken heat through July and August; leaves were left on the vines to shade the fruit, and the reds came through aromatic and deeply coloured with good structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFood and drinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe at 16-18C. It suits roast lamb with oregano, a ribeye, moussaka, or a hard aged sheep's cheese. Drinking well now and over the next five to ten years; an hour in a decanter opens it up. Sealed with a DIAM closure. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ktima Biblia Chora","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58476275990911,"sku":"HNW-5913321A","price":50.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/4192\/4998\/files\/5913321A.jpg?v=1789920728","url":"https:\/\/www.edkawines.com\/products\/2021-cabernet-sauvignon-ovilos-red-pangeon-ktima-biblia-chora","provider":"Edka Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
