The very old stumps give extremely concentrated fruit, with surprising intensity on the nose and an aromatic character reminiscent of plum, spices, herbs and some animal notes. The wine is produced with indigenous yeasts and sulphites are at extremely low levels. It is fermented in a combination of third tank, old 500lt capacity barrels and a concrete...
From the smallest appellation of origin in Kefalonia in terms of production, it is a stunning example of the variety's potential in the production of sweet wines. Sweet but not bubbly, super fresh on the palate with an ideal balance of sugars and acidity, the sweet Mavrodaphne from Sklavos is a "study" in elegance of style with a dense and solid but not...
Zakynthino came from Zakynthos many years ago and is still cultivated in that part of Kefalonia that faces its birthplace. From the limestone soils of the Elios plateau, with organic farming and minimal interventions during traditional winemaking where the skins remain in contact with the juice for a long time, Evryviadis produces another great orange...
Mild vinification involves spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel tanks with native yeasts and leaving the fermented wine in contact with the fine lees for 7 months. As the name of the variety suggests, Zakynthino travelled years ago from Zakynthos - where it is known as Pavlos - to Kefalonia. This is where the similarities end, as both in terms of...
The wine is organic and the vineyard is located in the area of Katogi (lower than the sea level) of Paliki. The small acreage yields of the vineyards (privately owned organic and cooperating) are from 30 to 50 years old and the wine is vinified in anoxic tanks with indigenous yeasts and bottled after remaining with the lees for about 8-9 months. Perfectly...
Aromas of apricot, tobacco and chaga and a mouthfeel with a rich honeyed texture but freshened by a generous dose of acidity in excellent balance with the ripe fruit. A few years in bottle and it will develop a lovely smoky expression rather reminiscent of toasted bread and reminiscent of the great terroirs of the world, such as that of Chablis....
Ripe fruit in the foreground along with spicier, mineral aromas and floral notes of dried flowers and nuts. The palate has a nice texture and moderate volume, balanced acidity and citrus peel with ripe apricot and banana. It is extremely enjoyable to drink and does not lack personality and character. Not intended for long aging but will evolve over 3-4...
