Evriviadis Sklavos' more ethereal, natural "look" at the Zante variety is a real revelation that broadens the taste horizons and enhances the concept of diversity. Zakynthino comes from a small vineyard of the Metaxas family, 20 years old, and is produced, like all Sklavos wines, with gentle natural vinification. An excellent writing sample of the producer's style, it manages a delicate balance between creamy richness and intense minerality, leading to a warm, dry, nutty - slightly oxidative - note. Zakynthino is the ultimate antidote to uniformity and to a perspective that wants -a priori- all wines today to offer crystal clarity, fresh aromas and lemony fruit.

More info

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 wine and taste profile, the wines from the two islands are extremely different. The Zakynthino of Sklavos follows a protocol of mild natural vinification in 500lt barrels where it remains for a year. Gentle oxidation in colour and aromas, with dried fruit, honey, almond and a hint of leather, while the palate is almost doped by the intensity of the minerality. Fresh acidity cuts like a knife through the creamy, honeyed, feel of the wine. Another special wine with depth and soul from Evriviadis Slavos.
