- A deliciously textured blend of Greek varietals with aromas of tropical fruit, stone fruits and delicate floral notes, all balanced by a lovely freshness. Niko adopts a minimal intervention approach and vinifies plot by plot using stainless steel, concrete, oak barrels and amphora. He aims to source great fruit and craft wines that reflect the nuances of the native varieties and the identity of the terroir. As a result, he produces a collection of authentic, elegant and delicious wines.
The grapes were chilled down to 5°C, carefully sorted and then the majority were gently pressed in a pneumatic press to release the juice. A small proportion of the fruit was vinified as whole clusters to impart complexity. Fermentation took place with selected yeasts, with each plot being vinified separately. The wine aged two to four months on the fine lees in stainless steel tanks to retain pure flavours.
This deliciously textured blend of Greek varietals has aromas of tropical fruit, stone fruits, and delicate floral notes, all balanced by a lovely freshness.

| Winery | The grapes come from various specially selected vineyards across Northern Greece, particularly from cool-climate regions, where the Mediterranean climate is tempered by strong continental influences. Diurnal temperature differences allow the grapes to build complex flavours while retaining refreshing natural acidity. The vines are trained using a variety of methods, which have been tailored to suit the variety and vigour of the vine and the terroir. However, most are Double Cordon to keep yields low and concentrate the flavours in the fruit. Most vineyards are cultivated following organic principles, although they are not certified, and all grapes are hand-harvested in the cool of the morning to retain freshness. |
