100% Liatiko. This is one of Greece’s most distinctive rosés, made from 100+ year old, self-rooted Liatiko bush vines growing at 800m elevation on the sandy soils of mt Kedros in the Psiloritis mountain range. Giorgos Lyrarakis and Myriam Ampouzer are the winemakers.
The hand harvest took place the first week of September. The grapes were slightly pressed at 10 degree Celcius. After the free-run juice settled naturally, the must was pressed and fermented. 13.5% alcohol.
The nose reveals nuances of herbs and pink grapefruit, while the mineral-laden palate is silky in texture with very light red fruit notes. Finishes with chalky minerals. A superbly fresh and unique rosé.
