| From a relatively unknown pedigree, this Malagouziadisplays an exotic perfume of orange blossom and honeysuckle, bordering on an already potent blend of gooseberry, and fennel frond notes that bridge the gap between touches of casaba melon, white currant and sugar plum. Light, feathery and demure, this is a knockout value in Greek wine that is very well layered, offering relief to those with a endearing lust for Mediterranean cuisine. (Wine Director: 91 Points) 100% Malagouzia, an ancient grape varietal producing highly aromatic wines with a round and soft palate. The wines are from P.G.I. Florina in north-west Greece. The grapes are destemmed and fermented in stainless steel under temperature control and aged 2 months on the lees. This wine is produced from estate owned vineyards at 690 m elevation on northwest facing vineyards. |
