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...
With an emphasis on bringing out the aromas of the variety, Mosaik is vinified in large centenary foudres with spontaneous fermentations and is a delicate, hedonistic expression of a dry Riesling. On the nose, it bursts with juicy citrus, night-flower aromas and the varietal's classic mineral signature. The lemony fruit on the palate and the minerality...
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...
Forget everything that defines modern. In Taganana everything is necessarily done in the traditional way. It is not a matter of choice but the wildness of the place dictates it. Only animals can help with the farming, which is done strictly by hand. The vines grow freely, without any support over cliffs. For those with acrophobia the sight is forbidding,...
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...
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...
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,...
