In a word: a mosaic of sensations.
The label shows link of Kairos to the Harlequin project: Harlequin’s costume is composed of many colours pf 15 different grapes, each with its own characteristics. In ancient Greek, Kairos means “opportune, at the right moment”. The addition of the sundial and the clock express the ideal exact time.
“Luminous, dense ruby red, with garnet highlights as it ages.A mosaic of fruit, blossoms, and earthy mineral, alternating with each other. And an impression of enfolding richness and complexity. Fruit, spices, and higher alcohols alternate with fruit marmalade and forest floor, followed by pipe tobacco, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove, combining with a vein of minerality to put on display the tremendous depth of this wine. It concludes with great length and an appealing note of sweetness.” Zyme. (n.d)
