Tsapournakos was nearly lost to extinction, and honestly, that alone would have been a tragedy.
It belongs to the Cabernet Franc family, which you can feel in the combination of dark fruit, pepper, and the kind of elegance that doesn't announce itself too loudly.
I love putting bottles like this in people's hands — wines from varieties most people have never heard of, made by a family that's been tending the same land for four generations.
