Rose
50% Xinomavro – 30% Limniona – 20% Mavroudi
Viticulture – Winemaking:
After their chilling at 5°C, grapes are carefully sorted and pressed with whole clusters in a vertical press. Fermentation takes place in ΙΝΟΧ and concrete tanks, independently for each vineyard plot. That means that each variety from a different vineyard, stays in a different tank to show up its own aromas. After 3-4 months of aging on its fine lees, wine has already got its character and it’s ready for bottling.
Tasting notes:
A complex and refreshing rose from 3 of the most interesting Greek red varieties, from vineyards of 15-45 years old. Light salmon color. Elegant notes of tangerine, orange, strawberries and white cherries, and a fine hint of tomato, one of the unique aromas of Xinomavro, dominate the nose. Full bodied and layered yet crispy, with aromas of strawberries and raspberries with a long, refreshing finish. A great Rose to enjoy it on its own or with several types of cuisine.
Food Matching:
Serve as a great match for pasta, pizza, fish, salads and fruits. It is a wine of character, the perfect companion for aperitifs with friends and cheese platters to share. An excellent accompaniment to Mediterranean and Greek dishes.
