Tetramythos Nature Volitsa

21,00 €

Aigialeia "hides" so many unexplored wine treasures that are a field of glory for wineries such as Tetramythos that are based on this philosophy of discovering the varietal wealth of their region. Mavri Volitsa is another of those unexplored local varieties that was found to coexist with other varieties in local vineyards at the altitudes of the region. Such a field blend, an old 42-year-old vineyard at an altitude of 710 meters, gives the newest -small batch- addition to the wines of Tetramythos. The magical terroir of Aigialeia once again "signs" the character of wine. Ethereal, floral, with crisp red fruit and notes of herbs and earth, light tannins, crisp acidity and absolute elegance and lightness in the mouth. Each sip is a reminder of the rare viticultural heritage and unique terroir of Aigialeia. Ideally enjoy it chilled

More info

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 methods with 10 days of extraction in open tanks, spontaneous alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, and maturation for 6 months in old barrels. The result is a red wine with intense cool red fruit, rich in aromatic herbal notes and earthy elements. In the mouth it is juicy and with a light tannic structure and tempered alcohol. Unique literally.
