Since 2015, Jerome Binda has been producing Rosaki as a single-varietal wine in Voria, rather than just as part of a blend. Despite the variety’s reddish hue, the juice it yields produces a crystal-clear, golden wine, while the extended aging on the lees lends it complexity and enhances its salty profile. What it lacks in liveliness and acidity, it makes...
White Potamisi and Rozaki, blended with 20% of the red Mavro Potamisi, are harvested simultaneously from the vineyard, co-fermented, and left in contact with the lees for one year. Pappous, like all Domaine de Kalathas wines, is bottled without the addition of sulfites. Mineral notes, Mediterranean herbs, and oxidative notes—more spicy than...
The grapes are organically grown (without certification) and come mainly from the mountainous area of Thapsani in the centre of the island. The "Nees Rizes" are not so new since they come from a combination of vineyards, the oldest of which in cups and traditional "aplotaria" are 150 years old. The vinification is entirely non-intrusive, with spontaneous...
Monemvasia, after the harvest at the end of August from organic autochthonous vineyards in various parts of the island up to 500m altitude, will follow a gentle natural vinification, where the wine will be vinified in stainless steel tanks with native yeasts. The wine will remain in contact with the lees for 8 months before being bottled with only a small...
Nicolas Bourget tries to render the terroir of Paros without intermediate interventions and winemaking fioritures. His approach is as simple as possible. Native yeasts take over to "run" the alcoholic fermentation, after directly pressing the whole bunches of Assyrtiko, and the whole process takes place in stainless steel tanks where the wine remains in...
Chardonnay Nature comes from a 4-acre organic, non-irrigated vineyard with northern exposure, at an altitude of 810 meters in the mountainous region of Aegialia. The vinification follows a classic white approach, using only free-run juice and minimal intervention. Alcoholic fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts at 16–18 °C and is followed by...
A Gevrey of amazing "form", athletic, muscular, full of power and energy from the old vineyards in an exceptional vineyard in the middle of a south-southeast facing slope on limestone with embedded marine fossils. The vineyard is farmed with certified organic farming and biodynamic practices and Galeyrand's non-intrusive, old school winemaking is the same...
Galeyrand"s winemaking philosophy finds perfect application in the Côte de Nuits Villages Vieilles Vignes. It"s not just the depth and play of the aromas but these beautiful textures that characterize his wines. Wines that literally flow on the palate since the initial tannic attack on the mouth is "washed away" very quickly by the essential fruit. In...
You get exactly what you expect from your favorite Bordeaux. Robust character of black fruits combined with earthy notes, tobacco leaves, spicy, pungent character and a minerality that resembles graphite. Subtle and refined on the palate but in the same time complex with depth of fruit. Such a great structure will help the wine to age with grace. Sincere...
It follows completely traditional winemaking, with 100% whole bunchand aging in old barrels for 12–14 months. This old-fashioned approach accurately highlights the terroir, emphasizing the subtle differences of each vineyard. Delicate and well-shaped, with nerve and substance, it perfectly complements the floral and fruity profile of the wine, which...
With the Extra Cuvée de Réserve, Laurens Hartman breaks new ground, truly entering a new realm where the world’s finest sparkling wines rightfully belong. Precise, crystalline, with acidity that prevails but never crosses the line into harshness, it perfectly balances freshness and absolute dryness on one hand, with a toasty and creamy character on the...
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...
