PERPETUUS SEMILLON

Perpetuus that means continuous, everlasting, perpetual. In 2004, the NICO LAZARIDI Winery, through its continuous quest of new tasting experiences and after a planning of many years and incessant vinifications in small individual batches, created two new products: a white and a red wine named Perpetuus.

The single-variety wine Perpetuus white from Semillon, its aging in new acacia barrels, along with the specific processing method make it a unique wine with excellent structure and stability in time.

Tasting Notes: Deep gold colour. Complex and pronounced nose with aromas of peach, melon, lime, elderflower and wet stone combined with white pepper, coconut, vanilla, honey and dried fruit. Full body and well balanced in the mouth with a long aftertaste.

Aging: Will respond to aging for up to 6 years after harvest.

Perfect Pairing: Served at 10-13οC. Excellent match for fish with light sauces, shellfish and botargo. White meat like poultry, pork with complex sauces thanks to its full body. Vegetables and white cheese.
