A 100% Roditis wine made with skin contact, from 30-year-old vines cultivated organically using permaculture principles, on limestone, clay, and sandy soils at an elevation of 120 meters with a north-south orientation. The harvest is done by hand and fermentation is spontaneous, as with all of the winery’s zero-intervention wines. Vinification involves maceration with whole grapes for 7 days in a stainless steel tank at 17–18°C, with the must then transferred to 400L Austrian oak barrels to complete fermentation. This is followed by aging for 6 months on the fine lees in the same barrels. The wine has good body, mild tannins from skin contact, and exceptional complexity resulting from the interplay of fruit, oxidative elements, and barrel. It is bottled unfiltered, without sulfites, as a pure and unpretentious expression of an orange Roditis wine.
