Areti white is skilfully produced from the Assyrtiko variety cultivated in the Estate’s calcareous and loamy soils in a region called Ampelia. Once the grapes are crushed, the juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks and allowed to rest on the fine lees for several months. It has a pretty bright blond, greenish colour. Chill well and serve at 12°C or lay it down for up to 10 years.
Nose:
The nose is precise, expressive and reminiscent of lemon, tangerine, orange and exotic citrus zest backed by strong stony minerality, characteristic for the variety.
Palate:
This unoaked dry white wine is weighty on the palate and its heft and zingy acidity make this wine a refreshing mouthful that lingers on pleasurably.
Food Pairing:
Sip on its own or with a variety of fish and seafood dishes and white meats accompanied by light sauces.
