Iliana Malihin, Liatiko, 2024 Morgen Long 2022 Offer hand-farmed because nothing else isLiatiko, an ancient Cretan red, finds modern expression through Iliana Malihin's biodynamic farming and wild fermentation. Sourced from ungrafted bush vines averaging 45 years old in the Meronas region, the wine captures wild berries, fine spice, and the terroir's cool climate energy. Fresh and juicy with structure, it proves indigenous varieties need not be quaint curiosities.
