The harvest for Auksinis maceration is done on the same day as Auksinis in a percentage of advanced infestation of grapes by botrytis. The extraction of the whole bunches takes about a week and the alcoholic fermentation takes place slowly and for about three months. The wine will mature with fine wine lees first for two years in stainless steel tanks and...
It's not just this historic piece of land across the river from Savennieres, a stunning - yet unexplored - terroir for dry wines, that Vanessa uses as the basis for some of the most delicious wines of the extremely fashionable Loire variety. She continues to nurture this great 50+ year old vineyard that sits on shale and sandstone soils with biodynamic...
The French response to a dry German Riesling is as sharp as this youthful and fresh Muscadet. It is a combination of young and older vines from different terroirs on the estate with very careful yields, which is the Achilles' heel of Muscadet. The use of whole bunches, spontaneous fermentation in glass-lined concrete vats and six months of contact with...
All 13 varieties of Alsace with 50% of the blend being Riesling. Soft but with some "angles" at the same time and a dense texture. Perfectly balanced, a fantastic wine for spicy salmon tartare, with Athenian fish but also fried foie gras. Old-school vinification, whole bunch fermentation, spontaneous fermentation and contact maturation for 12 months...
The grapes of the different varieties are harvested and vinified together for as long as it takes, having first ripened to perfection with the help of the winery's most meticulous attention to cultivation.

The wine is vinified in a combination of large foudres and oak barrels and matured for about 12 months without stirring the lees. No other intervention is made in the wine and sulphites are at very low levels. Delicate and intense at the same time in its aromatic intensity, it unfolds aromas of lemon curd, peach, quince and fresh pineapple, along with...
Sideritis Nature comes from a 58-year-old, organically cultivated, three-acre vineyard in the coastal region of Aegialia. The variety ripens extremely slowly; harvesting takes place in mid-November, producing a wine with low alcohol content and intense natural acidity. The vinification follows a philosophy of minimal intervention: the must remains in...
The process starts with de-stemming and without breaking the rails, followed by extraction at mild temperatures for 4 days. Fermentation is spontaneous and takes place in stainless steel tanks with simultaneous extraction. At the end of fermentation, the wine is matured in 3rd use French oak barrels with a capacity of 300 litres for a period of up to 3...
Aori means "mountain" in the local dialect and this is the name chosen by Aimilios Andrey for his project, indicating the search and revival of mountain vineyards in the White Mountains of Chania. The Muscat Spinas he produces is vinified in anodised tanks using neutral cultured yeasts and the brief contact with the lees helps the wine to build complexity...
The Garakis family's Vidiano comes from four organically cultivated vineyards, all located near the village and planted in poor, limestone soils. The process begins with 24 hours of skin contact at low temperature, before alcoholic fermentation begins, which lasts about 15 days under controlled conditions. The wine remains in contact with the fine lees...
