It is not only the old stumps but also the clonal diversity and biodiversity, which is the reason for the exceptional complexity of wines from such vineyards. The above, combined with the slow natural vinification and the Tatsis brothers' non-intrusive approach to the winery, result in a wine that has excellent layering and multiple layers in the glass....
For more structure and minerality turn to Marcel Lapierre's Morgon, but here, from the family's second estate (which after Marcel Lapierre's death is run by his wife with Jean Claude Chadunet) you will taste a more accessible, fruity example of Beaujolais typical of the cru of Brouilly. The wine is produced from old vines, which are grown using organic...
One of the earliest ripening sites in Burgundy a vineyard located between "La Justice" (on the lower side of D974 and Champerries on the upper side. Quite aromatic and lively in character with a depth of flavour that relaxes the tannic structure of the wine, providing excellent length on the palate. 15-20% fermentation with whole bunches, native yeasts...
We don't believe there is any other wine that could better express Yiannis Oikonomou's aesthetic of what he defines as a great wine.

Complexity, fluidity on the palate, soft lines and richness and ripeness are the characteristics that the granite terroir gives to Aspro Potamisi. The wine ferments spontaneously, without absolute temperature...
This wine draws on the tradition of Piemonte but equally of Burgundy. On the sandy soils of Lessona, Nebbiolo acquires a bouquet of aromas like rose, wild cherry and wild grapefruit with notes of tobacco, dried herbs and lively mineral dimension. On the palate its tannins are firm but velvety; the acidity is delicious same as the earthy dimension of the...
It is a blend of 50% Sangiovese, 40% Montepulciano and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, which is the classic blend of the appellation of origin. Sangiovese is more ethereal and elegant while Montepulciano gives the blend more body and richness. The wine comes from organic vineyards and is produced with minimal intervention in the winery. The fermentation and...
White Potamisi and Rozaki, blended with 20% of the red Mavro Potamisi, are harvested simultaneously from the vineyard, co-fermented, and left in contact with the lees for one year. Pappous, like all Domaine de Kalathas wines, is bottled without the addition of sulfites. Mineral notes, Mediterranean herbs, and oxidative notes—more spicy than...
