Juliet & Romeo Mavrotragano 75cl 13.5%

Description

Juliet & Romeo Mavrotragano 75cl 13.5% is a dry Greek red wine made from 100% Mavrotragano, shown in reviewed market and exhibition records as the 2021 vintage, bottled at 13.5% ABV in a 75cl format. The official Juliet & Romeo product page presents a deeply coloured, full-bodied wine with black fruit, spice and strong structure, while Oenorama records it as a red dry varietal wine with 2,000 bottles produced.

What makes this bottle especially attractive is the way it gives Mavrotragano a serious, structured expression outside its more familiar island associations. The official product page highlights black berries, blueberries, star anise, clove, vanilla and cinnamon, while a reviewed specialist retailer adds wild red fruits, herbs, oak and silky tannins with very good ageing promise. Together, these notes suggest a wine that balances ripe fruit with freshness, spice and grip.

Why Choose Juliet & Romeo Mavrotragano 75cl 13.5%

Juliet & Romeo Mavrotragano 75cl 13.5% stands out because it offers a more serious and limited-production take on Mavrotragano than many casual modern reds. The official producer notes point to a rich, full-bodied palate with pronounced tannins and high acidity, while Oenorama confirms a 2,000-bottle production and up to 18 months of pre-bottling maturation in oak, followed by up to 6 months of bottle ageing before release. That gives the wine both cellar appeal and stronger structure than a simple fruit-led red.

Ideal For.

This bottle is ideal for drinkers who enjoy structured red wines with black fruit, spice, oak and vibrant acidity rather than softer, sweeter red styles. This is based on the official producer tasting description and the reviewed specialist retailer note.

It is ideal for pairing with slow-baked goat giouvetsi, braised rooster in tomato sauce with traditional hilopites pasta, roast lamb with rosemary and potatoes, or aged graviera. This is based on the official producer food-pairing note and the reviewed retailer pairing suggestions.

It is also ideal for buyers looking for a limited Greek red that can develop well over time. This is an inference based on the official structure note, the high acidity, the oak and bottle ageing details, and the retailer comment that the wine can evolve beautifully in the cellar.

Collector’s Note

This bottle has good collector appeal because it combines a less common Greek variety, a clearly identified 2021 vintage and a confirmed 2,000-bottle production. For buyers interested in limited Greek reds, that immediately gives it more definition than a standard larger-volume release.

It is also attractive because the wine appears built for development rather than quick turnover. The official description stresses structure, tannin and acidity, while the reviewed retailer notes that the finish can evolve beautifully over time. That combination makes it appealing both as a drink-now bottle and as a cellar candidate.
