Mavrotragano is a powerful red grape grown almost exclusively on the Greek island of Santorini. Made well, and Mavrotragano can produce extremely high-quality red wines which have garnered an almost cult following in recent years. Full-bodied, yet soft, with a plethora of spicy-sweet fruit along with notes of earth and leather.
