Tasting notes
Pale, straw yellow colour with delicate golden-green highlights. Restrained and noble nose with hints of pine honey, white flowers, tropical fruits - lychee and pineapple, white pepper. Elegant body with a harmonious and fresh finish.
Vinification
The grapes are selected and picked early in the morning by hand, in small boxes of 10-12 kilograms. Cold maceration of the grapes for 4-5 hours, followed by direct pressing. Cold maceration on the lees has been applied on 30% of the must prior to fermentation. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks for 3 to 4 weeks, at lower temperatures, and under careful protection of the must against oxygen in order to preserve the varietal aromas.
Ageing
In stainless steel tanks on the fine lees for a period of 5 months.
Food pairing
Pairs well with white meats, fish, vegetables, soft cheeses and pasta with seafood.
