Muses Estate "The Red Muse"

Mediterranean Depth with a Modern Greek Soul.
The Red Muse from Muses Estate is a compelling red blend that brings together Merlot and Agiorgitiko, uniting international elegance with one of Greece’s most expressive indigenous grape varieties. Grown on the slopes of Mount Helicon in Central Greece, this wine reflects a landscape shaped by elevation, sunlight, and cooling mountain breezes — conditions that encourage ripe fruit, balanced structure, and aromatic complexity.

Merlot contributes softness, dark fruit, and a smooth, rounded mouthfeel, while Agiorgitiko — often referred to as Greece’s noble red grape — adds vibrancy, spice, and a distinctly Mediterranean character. Together, they create a harmonious wine layered with black cherry, plum, red berries, and subtle notes of sweet spice and dried herbs. The palate is medium-bodied and polished, with fine tannins and a lingering, elegant finish that feels both generous and composed.

For wine lovers in Ireland looking to explore modern Greek reds beyond the familiar, The Red Muse offers an inviting yet characterful style. Approachable but nuanced, it’s a wine that bridges tradition and contemporary winemaking with confidence and grace.

Why we love it:
We love The Red Muse for its balance of familiarity and discovery. The softness of Merlot meets the vibrancy of Agiorgitiko beautifully, creating a wine that’s smooth, expressive, and unmistakably Greek. It’s a versatile red that works just as well on its own as it does at the table.
