An Iconic Greek Red of Depth, Heritage, and Timeless Elegance

Magic Mountain Red is a distinguished expression of Greek red wines, crafted by Nico Lazaridi in Northern Greece. Named after the legendary Mount Pangeon, a historic crossroads of cultures and traditions, it reflects both the richness of the terroir and the winery’s dedication to creating wines of exceptional character.

Since its first vintage in 1990, this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc has earned recognition for its depth, balance, and long-lasting elegance.

Vinification Techniques
Produced through classic red wine vinification, Magic Mountain Red undergoes a long extraction period where the ratio of grape skins to must is carefully increased to enhance tannin structure and aromatic complexity. The wine is then aged for 18-20 months in new oak barrels, followed by an additional 18 months of maturation in the bottle under ideal cellar conditions, ensuring both refinement and longevity.

Tasting Notes
This red wine reveals a deep ruby color and an expressive bouquet. Aromas of ripe red and black fruits blend seamlessly with violet, coffee, chocolate, and a distinctive hint of spice. On the palate, it shows a full body, with round tannins balanced by lively acidity. The finish is aromatic, layered, and persistent, leaving a memorable impression with every sip.

Aging
Magic Mountain Red is structured for longevity and will age gracefully for 10-15 years after harvest, rewarding both collectors and fine wine programs in restaurants or cellars.

Perfect Pairing
Best enjoyed at 16-18˚C, this wine pairs beautifully with red meat dishes featuring rich sauces, game birds, venison, and aged spicy cheeses. Its versatility makes it equally suitable for private cellars, fine dining menus, and curated wine lists.
