BOSTAVAN PASTORAL ETULIA
Pastoral is a blessed Church wine that was spread around the world by the Orthodox clergy. It is an attribute of Communion ceremonies, symbolizes the blood of Christ, and is one of the symbols of Easter. Made from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. The wine has an intense, dark ruby color and peculiar for this wine, and flavors of cream and blackcurrant. Velvety taste with pleasant, mild viscosity.
The company has recently changed their label. The image is the same, however, instead of saying Kagor on the bottle, it now says Pastoral. It is the same wine just with a new label.
BOSTAVAN BLACK DOKTOR
Matured in French oak barrels this smooth, full bodied, sweet red wine carries a name that evokes legend and superstition. Whether Black Doktor is the mysterious ancient elixir known for curing body and soul or related to the sacramental Kagor wines of ancient Russian Orthodoxy, one thing is for sure, Black Doktor is an experience.
Often enjoyed cold, Black Doktor is a chocolatey, prunes, ripe red fruit delight. Undeniably sweet and depending on your palette, Black Doktor could be considered a dessert wine when drunk at room temperature or enjoyed as a unique, robust red when chilled. It has an army of fans who will attest to its restorative properties!

KAGOR RESERVE LATE HARVEST
