An easy-going style – perhaps a good replacement for a crisp Pinot Grigio for those starting their journey into Greek white wines. Soft bouquet of blossoms, juicy nectarines on the nose, and a lively light body with a slightly saline finish. The Roditis grapes are grown in high altitude, semi-mountainous terrain of Achaia, bringing natural acidity. The pink-skinned, aromatic Moschofilero grapes are from the cool-climate plateau of Mantineia in Arcadia, bringing lots of freshness. Each variety is vinified separately, with fermentation in stainless steel, followed by short maceration on the fine lees.
