- TASTING NOTE: Elegant character of fresh dark fruit and herbs. Succulent, savoury and complex palate with fine tannic structure. Vibrant acidity and freshness.
- ABOUT THE WINE: A blend of higher altitude parcels around the village of Fytia and the warmer, lower elevation parcels adjacent to the village of Trilofos. Vines are young and non-irrigated. Grapes are hand-picked, 75% destemmed, macerated for 12-15 days and fermented in stainless steel tanks for three months. It then matures for another eight months in concrete tanks before being bottled unfined and unfiltered.
- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: The Thymiopoulos family has been in agriculture and grape-growing in the village of Trilofos for generations. Apostolos Thymiopoulos was the first to vinify the family vineyards while studying oenology. In 2005, he produced his first wine named 'Earth and sky'. He truly believes in sustainable viticulture (his vineyards utilise organic and biodynamic farming) and minimum intervention during the whole winemaking process. Apostolos applies this philosophy to produce ten different expressions of Xinomavro, the renowned variety of Northern Greece, trying to reveal every aspect of its potential.
