Agiorgitiko (pronounced “Ah-yor-YEE-tiko,” aka, St. George) is capable of producing deeply coloured, full-flavoured yet velvety wines, and this is no exception. Medium-deep ruby colour with aromas of cherry, blackberry, freshly turned earth and plum. Dry and quite fruity, this mature, round wine is drinking beautifully tonight, and will continue to do so for 2+ years. Like a Southern Rhône red, it will work well with roast leg of lamb with rosemary and garlic. (VINTAGES panel, July 2011)

Perhaps a wine for Pinot Noir lovers. Lots of different flavours, and a long finish. Get this if you want adventure, not to serve to guests, or want amazing value for twenty bucks. It grows on me with every sip. I started this review rating it at 89, but after having a little between every sentance, I am going to push it to the magic 90. Too bad it ran out, or it might have gone even higher.
