Winemaker notes
The wine is made from hand-picked grapes of 54-year-old plantations from the southern slopes of Sakar mountain. The vineyards are cultivated on stony, sandy, red-brownish clay soil with marble pieces in an ecologically clean area. The grapes are from an early harvest, with sugar content of 22.8%, cold-soaked on fine sediments several days prior to fermentation. The juice is coldpressed gently for a few hours, with the skins, using a pneumatic press. Aged for 3 months on fine lees in stainless steel tanks. Fermented with naturally occurring yeast from the vineyard.
