Do you know Pavlo? I have to admit that 2 years ago, I’d never heard his name; since then, I hear it all the time, especially since I began traveling to the Lake Erie North Shore area … He seems to be very big down there. He’s a Greek-Canadian International Recording artist who "created the Mediterranean Music Genre" and his playing’s as beautiful as any I’ve heard. Turns out he’s a good friend of Eadie Mastronardi (owner of this winery) and as friends usually do, they help each other out (or do things for one another). Pavlo has played at a few of Mastronardi’s events at the winery, and in return Mastronardi has provided Pavlo with his very own wine. But unlike owning your own label in the music industry, this is not a vanity project for this musician; it’s a serious wine venture, and who better to spearhead a wine than a guy playing Mediterranean music (golfers and hockey players don’t have that sensual aura or background about them). The nose starts off raisiny, but quickly turns into cassis, black cherry, sweet herbs and when the wines sits (without aerating) there’s even a pleasant butterscotch sensation that rises up into the olfactories. In the mouth, you’ll find a crossfiring of your tastebuds, as sweet and sour raspberries, sour cherries, herbs, a touch of something herbaceous along with rich chocolaty tannins that pinch the sides of the tongue – all these flavours fight it out in your mouth before they subside down your throat. Finally, there is only one way I figure I can end this review properly; throw down a hat, stomp my feet as the guitar strumming rises, two clicks of the heels and “Oh-La!”
