The single vineyard is located in the location of Paula Nera Naoussa. In recent years, in a continuous restructuring programme, Markovitis has gradually vineed this particular area, with the average age of the stumps currently standing at 9 years. The grapes for his rosé are fermented with spontaneous yeasts in stainless steel tanks where the wine also...
Santalo is not just a wine from a special vineyard; it is also a unique vineyard at an altitude of 830m, where many different varieties are planted (field blend), as was traditionally the case in old vineyards. From this small plot, the Kotsifalia grapes for Santalos are separated from the other varieties and vinified 100% whole bunch, with the entire...
A different approach to the Savvatiano variety characterized by maturity, complexity, tasty tensions and the interplay between primary, secondary (from the lees) and tertiary (ageing) aromas. Even if one is not a fanatic of the style, Aoton Savatiano is a wine with a completely unique character and gives an extra dimension to the variety and complexity of...
A landmark wine that proves the strength and stubbornness of Iliana, who despite the difficulties due to the fire that destroyed a large part of her old vineyards, managed to "enchant" us again with her new rosé. In a blessed place where old goblets abound, Iliana turned to the great variety of Crete, Liatiko, in a rosé vinification that raises the bar....
Vidiano and Thrapsathiri from vineyards of the Rethymnon area at altitudes between 560-900m. The vines are a combination of younger vineyards and age-old autochthonous stumps on clay and shale soils, 10-100 years old. Iliana Malihin's classic - non-intrusive - winemaking with indigenous yeasts, minimal sulphites and no collage or filtration give a wine...
Sylvain is among the Burgundy producers who have returned to the traditional technique of using whole bunches during the winemaking process, a technique that was particularly widespread in Burgundy in the past. The top-of-the-range Clos du Roy is vinified with 100% whole bunches and is a Pinot Noir of great concentration and depth of fruit with enormous...
The 25-year-old organic vineyard is located on limestone, rocky soils on the slopes of Kounavos, at the foot of Peza in Heraklion. The Muscat Spina buds came from the province of Selino in Chania, the place of origin of the variety, and have been grafted onto the native Rozaki variety. The harvest takes place in two phases: the first with a lower Baumé to...
The rosé wine produced by the Garakis winery comes from the same grapes used to make the family's red Mantilari wine. Twelve hours after the grapes are crushed, part of the must is bled off to produce the rosé, while at the same time enhancing the concentration of the red. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperatures,...
Fantastic attention to detail, low yields, and a healthy biodynamic vineyard explain the high quality of Quintaine. The grapes arrive at the winery ripe and healthy, and from then on, the Guillemots simply monitor without interfering in the winemaking process. Fermentation of whole bunches with natural yeasts, maturation in concrete tanks with the lees,...
Milia Riza's Blanc de Noir Agiorgitiko comes exclusively from the estate's organic vineyards located on sandy clay soils in the Xerocampos and Poria locations. The base wine will remain in contact with the lees for a few months in stainless steel tanks with periodic stirring of the lees and then "inoculated" again to carry out the second fermentation in...
