Natalie's Score: 90/100

From Neméa, Peloponnese P.D.O., Cavino Grande Reserve 2016 is great value at $20. Produced from 100% Agiorgitko sourced from one of Greece's highest mountain ranges, the high-altitude vineyard in the Neméa is the only Greek PDO to focus solely on the Agiorgitiko grape (750 to 900 metres above sea level). This vintage spent 18 months in French and American oak barrels. Expect bright dark fruit, plum and spicy flavours framed by firm tannins on this savoury and robust red. Enjoy it with rack of lamb.

Food pairings: lamb stew, barbecued beef, sausage casserole.
