When you see its colour, you will hesitate between describing it as white or even as a pale pinkish, because of the characteristic colour hint it leaves. This is logical if you realize that this is a blanc de noir Xinomavro vinification and the non-intrusive philosophy of the brothers Pericles and Stergios Tatsis who would not filter the color of the wine. Biodynamic practices in the vineyard give way to a gentle “natural” vinification in the cellar. Soft and rich, with a lively acidity one would expect from Xinomavro and complexity that comes through in the nuts, herbs and candied fruit. To say the least about this Xinomavro white is that it is distinctive, full of personality and a wonderfully versatile and versatile character.

More info

With blanc de noir vinification the image of red Xinomavro changes completely, producing a different style of wine. After the grapes are destemmed, a very gentle crushing of the grapes follows, with only 30% of free-flowing juice being quickly removed to avoid picking up pigments or other phenolic elements of the grapes. Fermentation is slow, spontaneous at a controlled temperature and the wine remains in contact with the lees for about a year. There is no intervention or discolouration by filtering, so the wine acquires that wonderful, characteristic, light shade of blanc de noirs. Rich and aromatic, with notes of orange peel, candied quince and a complex palate full of toast, honey and tobacco.
