Static settling and fermentation at a controlled temperature (16°C) in small stainless steel tanks. The de-fermented wine remains on its lees for three months with frequent stirring.
THE WINERY PHILOSOPHY:
The authenticity of the taste and the expression of the Attic land in our wines.
Creating high-quality wines that truly express both the grape variety and the character of our soil was never an option – it was the only way.
We know our land deeply. We grew up there, we walked and worked there, season after season. We have observed the vines, we have inhaled the changing aromas of their leaves throughout the year, and we have tasted the annual miracle of the grape. These experiences have shaped who we are. What we seek to preserve is this sense of authenticity – flavors that are in harmony with the land that nourishes the vine.
THE VINEYARDS
Our vineyard is located in Lavreotiki, in the Keratea region and belongs to the wider wine-growing zone of Mesogaia, a historical place, famous for its wine since the time of ancient Greece and the symposia of Plato, Socrates and Aristotle.
We operate in the Keratea region, which belongs to the Mesogaia viticultural zone. Our vineyard is deeply differentiated compared to the rest of Mesogaia, as it has significant advantages in climatic conditions, altitude and soil composition.
