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...
On the hill of Paliochalia, in the central-southern part of the zone, the estate's privately owned old vines have been cultivated organically since 1996. The wine is of astonishing complexity, although it takes years to develop its full potential. It matures for about 12 months in French oak barrels and is bottled unfiltered to preserve its flavor...
DD is a tribute to Andre Tissot, Stephane's father, known by the nickname DD, and reflects a traditional Jura winemaking style. The Pinot Noir is harvested whole and undergoes three weeks of semi-carbonic maceration in conical wooden vats, while the Poulsard (25%) and Trousseau (40%) are destemmed by hand and ferment spontaneously. They are aged for three...
The wine comes from two organic vineyards at 1,050 meters altitude — one with a western exposure (Agios Ilias) and the other with an eastern exposure (Allama ton Gynaikon). The vines are bush-trained (gobelet), dry-farmed without irrigation, and within the vineyard, Yiannoudi is interplanted with Spourtiko, Morokanella, and Xynisteri — a common practice...
Bucephale is a natural red wine made from 100% Xinomavro grapes grown in organic vineyards cultivated using permaculture principles at an altitude of 300 meters. The soils (limestone, clay, granite, and silicate elements) impart structure and complexity. The harvest is done by hand and is followed by destemming, with whole-cluster maceration for 21 days...
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...
Such a nose defines the Old World; it recalls some great aged Montepulciano d’Abruzzo from Emidio Pepe, with a slightly aggressive initial impression that ultimately transforms into something soft. Like a wild hand that, over time, has learned to caress. Tremendous energy and a complex character, where primary and especially tertiary aromas such as...
