Strofilia Classic White Wine

DRY WHITE WINE PGI PELOPONNESE

Roditis, Sauvignon Blanc

CHARACTERISTICS:

Green/yellow color. Fresh and lively aromatic character with strong citrus aromas, with pleasant acidity and gentle aftertaste of herbs.

VINIFICATION:

The vinification takes place separately for each variety. After careful grading of grapes both in the vineyard and in the winery, a pre-fermentation cryo-extraction is carried out and a slight pressing of the grapes in order to get the first juice. Filtration and inoculation of the grapes with a different strain of yeast is performed for each variety. The fermentation temperature varies from 16° - 18° C and is completed after about 15 days.

VINEYARDS:

Roditis from Mamousia of mountainous Aegialias and Sauvignon Blanc from Asprokambos of mountainous Corinthia.

Mamousia: Vineyards in the region of Aegialia mountain where there is a mild Mediterranean climate with cold but relatively humid winters and hot dry summers without any rain (usually storms).

Asprokambos: Vineyards in the Stymphalia plateau, in deep, clay, alkaline soils with a lot of calcium carbonate. Their yield does not exceed 900 kg/str. The climate of the area is characterized by cold winter, a lot of rain and snow, cool spring and dry summer, with higher temperatures during the day and cooler in the evenings.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

An excellent choice for seafood and grilled fish, while it compliments salads and pasta. It is also an amazing choice when combined with many traditional dishes of the Greek cuisine. Served: Cool (10° - 12° C)
