| Winery | The vineyard sits approximately 100 metres above sea level and benefits from great diurnal temperature variations, ideal for promoting an extended ripening period for the vines and concentrating the flavours in the berries. The vines are planted at a density of 4,000 per hectare and grown in soft, thin soils with a fine texture and good drainage. The vineyards are managed sustainably, with technology being used to monitor weather conditions to minimise the work required in the vineyard. A bio-fertiliser made from seaweed from the nearby Ionian Sea is employed as an alternative to chemical fertilisers. Biodiversity within the vineyard is encouraged by planting indigenous grape varieties alongside Mediterranean trees and plants resistant to drought, thereby reducing water waste. The harvest takes place during the second and third weeks of August. |
