Silphium Magnum La Tour Melas
€83,10
Silphium Magnum by La Tour Melas is the 1.5L version of one of the estate’s most distinctive rosé wines. It does not follow the idea of a simple summer rosé; it is more gastronomic, rarer and more serious, with a bottle that brings extra presence to the table.
It is made from Fokiano, Grenache, Monemvasia and Aspro Potamisi, a combination that gives intensity, texture and a distinctive Greek identity. Vinification includes hand harvesting, gentle pressing and fermentation in ceramic amphorae and stainless steel tank, while ageing on fine lees for 6 months gives depth, volume and a more complex feel.
In the glass, it has bright golden-rosé hues and brings citrus, quince, honey, dried flowers, pineapple, grapefruit and a subtle tannic structure that makes it ideal for food. On the palate, it is rich, rounded and balanced, with soft acidity, full texture and a long finish.
The Magnum bottle makes it even more suitable for large dinners, premium gifting and sharing with people who want something different in the glass. It pairs very well with fatty fish, shrimp, langoustines, smoked seafood, sushi, bottarga, white meats, Mediterranean flavours with herbs and dishes with gentle spices.
