Description

Malagousia is a white wine created with a certain point of view. A wine typical of the Malagousia variety and the expression of the terroir where it is cultivated. Its origin from the mountainous vineyards of the Slopes of Aigialia and the purity of this Malagousia clone give a rich aromatic expression and a crystal acidity to this grape variety that make the grapes ideal for the creation of a quality modern white wine.

Winemaking

Careful selection of the grapes in order for them to come to the winery in the ideal state of maturity and hygiene. Harvest in small crates up to 20kg. Pre-fermentation maceration for 36 hours at a temperature of 8°C and subsequent pressing to receive the free- run must. Fermentation at low temperatures of not more than 15°C and utilization of the fine lees. It is bottled fresh under inert gas atmosphere.

Personality

A modern white wine with a rich aroma of herbs of the Greek nature, citrus and exotic fruits. Voluminous in the mouth, with aromatic complexity and delicious taste. It has refreshing acidity and is bone dry in the finish. An ideal companion of fish, white meats, pasta with white and spicy sauces and Asian cuisine.

Volume: 750 ml
