Naturally sweet as opposed to fortified, Basileus is a light-coloured red wine, at 15% abv due solely to natural sugars in the grapes. Sweet fruit flavours, yet fresh and clean (not cloying and heavy as some dessert wines can be). It’s in a lighter style, more of a table wine with sweetness than a true concentrated dessert wine. Very easy drinking, smooth with gentle acidity – serve at room temperature. .
