Product notes

The vineyard is located 700 meters above sea level in the wine-growing area of ​​Agios Panteleimon, in the Amyndeon Appellation in northwestern Greece. The average yield of the vineyard does not exceed 40 hl/he. The soil is sandy and poor. The region's microclimate is characterized by cold winters and hot summers, while the four nearby lakes help create a mild continental climate.

Production notes

After a period of cold maceration, which increases the extraction of more intense aromas from the skin of the grapes, the must is clarified by static settling, before being inoculated with selected yeasts demonstrating the aromatic character of the grapes. Batonnage is applied in stainless steel vats for a period of 3 to 5 months, with the aim of adding volume and complexity to the wine.

Tasting notes

Intense but refined muscatel aromas of jasmine, white peach and apricot, typical of a high quality Malagousie, are nicely balanced by the freshness of a mountain Roditis adding crisp acidity and zest to the final blend . Pairings with fish, marinated poultry and Asian dishes.
