Harmoni 2019 is a fine Albanian wine from Caco Winery, made with great care from 90% Merlot and 10% Gems. The Open Balkan Wine Trophy 2023 Gold Medal is presented as a harmonious marriage of flavors inspired by the Greek goddess Harmonia, who symbolized equilibirum and unity. This is perfectly balanced between the generosity of Merlot and freshness from Gems. It's something quite special in every tasting.
Aromas and Taste Profile
The nose of the Harmoni 2019 yields an interesting bouquet, with plum and blackberry notes, floral undertones lurking in the background. Smooth and full-bodied, Merlot drapes this wine with its texture, and Gems adds touches of cherry and raspberry with freshness and energetic vitality.
The softness of Merlot to that refreshing fruit explosion of Gems-vinous perfection in each sip, Harmoni turns an orchestra. This cheerful play of contrasts leads to a well-balanced, round wine fit for every occasion.
Production Method
Produced in the Pogradec region, which enjoys rich soils and an ideal climate, it is carefully manufactured and aged. Harmoni 2019, after a period of 6-month micro-oxygenation, reaches its full potential by combining soft tannins with the vivid acidity of the Gems. The vineyard produces only 5,000 bottles per year, thus making it a limited but special offering to the wine enthusiasts.
Awards and Recognitions
Harmoni 2019 was much valued and won the Gold Medal in a number of prestigious international wine competitions, such as Open Balkan Wine Trophy 2023. Its craftsmanship reflects the dedication and passion of the CACO Winery, which has been producing high-quality wines since 2000.
