back label of the wine from the first post--showing Boutari founded in 1879, and 13% alcohol

2/2

Best of all, this has always been a fine bargain from big Boutari in Greece--around $30 in new vintages. This silky red looks like it will continue aging gracefully for another 10+ years. The grape ages well. 13% alc.
