Tasting notes: Pronounced aromas of raisins, complemented by the aromas dried figs and plums, sweet spices and coffee. Rich in the mouth with a long aftertaste.
Serving and Food Pairing: Liatiko should be served cold (4-6 °C ) as an aperitif or a dessert wine. We suggest you accompany it with dried fruits and nuts, fruit tarts and desserts with chocolate and coffee.
