Serving Enotria Red wine
Should be served at 17°C. It is an excellent companion for pasta with minced meat. It is wonderfully combined with meat such as rabbit, wild goat or guinea hen. It pairs well with some traditional Greek dishes, like "moussaka" (vegetables and minced meet with béchamel sauce), "soutzoukakia Smyrneika" (meatballs in red sauce) and lentils with Cretan "apaki" (smoked pork). It is also nice with lentils in tomato sauce, rabbit or hare stew and eggplants "imam baildi". Its acidity makes the wine an excellent companion when flavours need to be tempered, so it is greatly combined with the fat of the traditional Cretan dish "antikristo arni" (lamb cooked in bonfire).
