EMERY Grand Cru Mandilaria Rhodes PDO Greece

Rhodes PDO, Greece
Grand Cru Mandilaria from EMERY's old vines on the Rhodes limestone plateau. Deep ruby, red cherry, wild strawberry, dried Mediterranean herbs, and a saline Aegean mineral from the island's sea-influenced terroir. Mandilaria's tannins need careful winemaking — EMERY's Grand Cru achieves the grape's potential for genuine elegance.
complement
Rhodes Easter lamb roasted whole with local herbs and lemon — the island's most important culinary tradition — pairs with this red.
