HARVEST

Gewürztraminer from the mountainous vineyards of Amyndeon was prematurely harvested, having reached excellent levels of ripening. Xinomavro, which derives from a selected and specially managed vineyard in Goumenissa, ripened in record time thanks to the green harvest and other special techniques that were applied, and was harvested right before the first autumn rains, thus maintaining its very high quality levels.

VINIFICATION

After a few hours of maceration, the Xinomavro is moved to a new tank for vinification together with 15% Gewürztraminer.
