Winery | The grapes are sourced from Plataea, a small village near the Kitheronas Mountain in Central Greece. The vineyard is situated at an altitude of 250 to 320 metres elevation. During the autumn and winter, cool air masses blow down from the mountains, carrying dew, which refreshes the vineyard with crucial humidity. Cold winters, hot summers, and long, dry autumns combine with long periods of sunshine to enable the grapes to reach excellent maturity and complexity. This wine is a blend of native varieties Savatiano, Assyrtiko, and Aidani, which are suited to the hot, dry climate as they have good drought-resistant properties. Yields are controlled meticulously, and all viticultural practices are conducted manually. The older vines are established and have developed deep root systems, so, during the hot summers, the roots can reach the water reserves and essential nutrients. Harvest takes place at night, contributing to preserving varietal aromas and natural acidity. |
