Markovitis Winery, Alkemi, 2025

' Such personality. This is the right moment to drink this bargain' - Jancis Robinson MW Alkemi will change everything you know about rose. The wine is bold and juicy, packing a punch with pink grapefruit, wild strawberry and rose petal. The savoury stamp of Xinomavro brings tomato leaf and oregano. Streaked with mouthwatering acidity, it has just the right amount of grip to be the perfect drinkable, gastronomic rose. Alkemi pays homage to the darker gastronomic rose styles adored by sommeliers the world over, but fresher and more drinkable. What would I pair with Alkemi? Anything! I could absolutely list dishes from monkfish to fillet steak but it doesn’t need food to shine.
