Dianthos Greek Ros\u00e9 from Tesco is a good choice for pre-dinner sipping, but also pairs well with summer dishes \u2013 and the price is attractive too!<\/p>\n<p>Dianthos is Greek for Flower of the Gods. Greek mythology suggests that Zeus, king of the gods on Mount Olympus, envied his sister Hera\u2019s own flower, the lily, so threw a bolt of lightning to invent an even better flower. It\u2019s the Dianthus (pink, or small carnation) that we know today.<\/p>\n<p>Boutari Dianthos Ros\u00e9 2025 showcases Xinomavro grapes. It\u2019s a popular ancient grape which does so well in the mineral-rich, high-altitude soils of Naousa, Macedonia, in Northern Greece. The Naousa wine has a PGI designation \u2013 Protected Geographical Indication is a European Union quality scheme certifying that a wine originates from a specific region, has a quality or reputation associated with that area, and is made with at least 85% of grapes from that area.<\/p>\n<p>This salmon-coloured ros\u00e9 has balanced tannins making it the perfect wine for enjoying with seafood in creamy sauces. There are summer berries such as strawberries and raspberries here, so a delightful wine for the season.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tesco.com\/\">Visit Tesco here\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Xinomavro grapes and Boutari Wineries.
