Merchant's description
La Tour Melas 2020 is a Greek red blend from the Phthiotis region. This wine is an exploration of the Mediterranean climate’s interaction with the cooler altitudes of the vineyards. The result is a wine that embodies structure and depth, characterised by dark fruit profiles and subtle earthy undertones. Led by winemaker Christos Melas, La Tour Melas focuses on organic farming practices.
