Mavro Kymis
Introduction
Mavro Kymis is an authentic, local red variety from Evia, closely linked to the viticultural tradition of the Kymi region. It is a valuable part of the Evian land, producing wines with a distinctive local character, while its early ripening makes it one of the most interesting choices for growers seeking stability and adaptability to the conditions of the Aegean.
Tasting Notes
Mavro Kymis yields a must characterized by balance and mild elements: It has moderate sugar content, producing wines with a reasonable alcohol level, ideal for daily consumption. Its moderate acidity makes it pleasant on the palate, although careful timing of the harvest is required to maintain the necessary freshness in the final product. As its name suggests, it offers satisfactory color intensity, producing red wines with a classic, ruby character.
Gastronomy
Wine from Mavro Kymis pairs ideally with local cuisine, such as stewed meats, traditional Evian pies, and mature cheeses.
Terroir
Kymi, also known as the 'Balcony of the Aegean,' offers a unique microclimate: The cool Aegean winds help maintain the health of the grapes, preventing diseases despite the August heat. Mavro Kymis is the 'red trademark' of the region, complementing the rich agricultural production (such as the famous Kymi figs).
