Spira Solera is produced exclusively from Xinomavro grapes grown in organic vineyards in Pella at an altitude of 100 meters. The harvest is done by hand, and the must is separated from the skins in a blanc de noir vinification process in stainless steel tanks. The juice is transferred to 400L oak barrels to complete fermentation and is then added to the...
The wine is fermented with spontaneous yeasts in a combination of cement and oak tanks and is matured for eight months in them. It has that lovely peppery character of the Rhone wines but with very restrained alcohol and more fresh than overripe fruit. The tannins are soft and flowing on the palate, possessing both breadth and density. There's nothing to...
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...
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...
Volitsa of Tetramythos is produced from a field-blend, a 42-year-old vineyard in the mountainous part of Aigialeia, planted in limestone and claystone soils. It is a field-blend of rare red Greek varieties with Mavri Volitsa being separated for this small-production wine. The harvest is done manually in October, and the vinification follows traditional...
Delicious, expressive, fresh red fruit, reminiscent of cherry and wild strawberry along with some mineral notes that suggest iodine and herbal hints that bring to mind coriander and mint. A fine thread of tannins unfolds on the palate, just enough to provide the structure that even a wine so fine in line and delicacy would need. "Les Pierres Plates" comes...
