Melissaki, whose name derives from its honeyed aromas, was rescued from the slopes of Psiloritis and is cultivated in the Geroditis vineyard of the estate at an altitude of 480m. Vinification takes place in contact with the skins for one month in 400-liter first and second-use barrels and with yeasts isolated from this particular vineyard. The wine is not...
En Spois is one of the single-vineyard Vin Jaune wines produced by Tissot and comes from Savagnin grapes grown on clay soils from the Triassic period with eastern exposure. Fermentation occurs spontaneously with indigenous yeasts, and the wine is aged for 6 years in old barrels without filling in an oxidative manner. Aging takes place in 60% warmer and...
The wine comes from two organic vineyards at 1,050 meters altitude — one with a western exposure (Agios Ilias) and the other with an eastern exposure (Allama ton Gynaikon). The vines are bush-trained (gobelet), dry-farmed without irrigation, and within the vineyard, Yiannoudi is interplanted with Spourtiko, Morokanella, and Xynisteri — a common practice...
The Vidiano young vines come from three different vineyards in the village of Melamps in Rethymnon. The vines are dry, planted on slopes with an altitude of 650m from the surface of the sea level. The vinification is done in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts and low sulphites. The wine is not clarified and the general interventions are...
Classic, a little rustic, the best you can expect from Italy in this quality/price ratio. And if Chianti brings to mind trattorias and red tablecloths, therein lies its charm. It's direct, familiar, enjoyable and utterly comforting. All this delivered through a quality lens that in recent years has revolutionised the region and restored its name in wine...
Classic Xinomavro on the nose, with aromas of ripe cherry, strawberry, and forest fruits, while hints of tertiary characteristics begin to emerge discreetly. The wine comes from the single-varietal vineyard surrounding the estate, with relatively young vines that have now completed the replanting of the family vineyard that began at least a decade ago. On...
Bucephale is a natural red wine made from 100% Xinomavro grapes grown in organic vineyards cultivated using permaculture principles at an altitude of 300 meters. The soils (limestone, clay, granite, and silicate elements) impart structure and complexity. The harvest is done by hand and is followed by destemming, with whole-cluster maceration for 21 days...
Muscat Blanc Sec Nature comes from a 7-acre organic vineyard with northern exposure, at an altitude of 915 m, near Ano Diakopto. The 18-year-old vines on clay-limestone soils produce grapes with high natural acidity and a clean mineral identity. Only free-run juice is used; both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation occur spontaneously. Twenty-five...
Expressive yet calm on the nose, with exceptional aromatic clarity, perfectly showcasing the wonderful floral character of Moscato. Fresh notes of green tea add finesse to the fruit’s sweetness, evoking summer. Imagine a ripe fruit salad of peach, apricot, grape, melon, and a few basil leaves. Airy on the palate, with low alcohol and gentle effervescence,...
