Wine Makers Notes:Proud of our dry red, this wine is a delight with a deep burgundy color and a hint of oak as well as a little spice. Light on the tannins, this wine should complement meats or richer foods nicely.

Wine Makers Remarks:Duplin Winery’s Scuppernong is the most famous variety of Vitis Rotundifolia and the oldest wine made in America. No plantation dinner would have been complete without this delicious sweet wine. Muscadine wines, both red and white, have ten times the resveratrol found in ordinary red wines.

Retsina of Attica Kourtaki NV
February 26, 2010 | 1 Comment
Wine Makers Notes: Made from the Savatiano grapes grown near Athens this Greek classic is not the Retsina of old that any people might remember. It is a fruit driven wine framed by the addition of a small amount of Pine tree resin during frermentation. The pine flavour is disticive and works well with the fruit. This wine is extremely popular in Greece and nearly every holiday maker that has made the trip to Greece will have at some point tried this wine. Ideal with Greek food – hence the 4000 year heritage of this wine.
