This combines 50% Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley with 50% Xinomarvo from Greece, in partnership with Alpha Estate. Tasting of plum and oak, its tart acidity is a touch disjoin ted. The word Philotimo runs deep into the soul of all Greeks. It is the undercurrent which binds Hellenes together; the spirit that has left Greeks and Americans on the right side of history. Literally, Philo means friend, Timo means honor. More deeply, it means love and honor within one’s self. To have a sense of duty, courage, personal sacrifice, compassion, empathy, humility, decency, and respect. Show more
