Serving Helios Sweet Red wine

Should be served at 10°C and is ideal for chocolate based desserts, such as chocolate tart, caramel au beurre sale et chocolat noir and tarts with dried figs or black fruits. It would well accompany crema catalana or other desserts with burnt caramel. Helios will also complement some traditional Cretan pastries and pies, such as “kalitsounia” or “sfakiani pita”.
