Douloufakis Syrah grape wine

"Alargo" Red
Douloufakis Dry wine


Plethoric | Jammy | Complex

This wine has very dark-red colour, close to Tyrian red. It has a complex aromatic bouquet that is reminiscent of plum, dark cherry jam, vanilla, dried ham and dark chocolate. The wine has an overabundant flavour profile which –as time passes- becomes richer. It has a thick taste, with juicy tannins and a long lasting, spicy aftertaste.
