Tasting Notes
Pale khaki color. Aromas of ripe apricot, honey, cantaloupe, and white peppercorn with a satiny, tangy, dryish light body and a smooth, compelling, medium-length citron, lemon spritz, and almond finish. A delicious warm-weather white that will pair like a dream with shellfish; refreshing, mineral-focused, and effortlessly drinkable. Tastings.com
Winemaker Notes
Each grape variety was grown in the specific mesoclimate and soils of Klimenti in the south of Greece where it is able to achieve its most outstanding character. It is a wine that combines the sun of Greece and the cool breeze coming from our high elevated vineyards.
