Oenologist: Leonidas Nassiakos

Vineyard: From our low yielding vineyards at Koutsi in Nemea at an altitude of 550m.

Soil: Sloping, limestone and clay

Yield: 50 hl/ha

Microclimate: Chilly winters combined with cool summer nights, due to high altitude, provide a perfect maturation. The grapes are vinified to reveal the character of a deep red and well- balanced wine.

Harvest: 15th – 17th September.

Vinification: Grapes are handpicked and transferred to the winery. After strict selection of the grapes, they are first chilled and then cold soaked for up to five days, at a temperature of 8-10oC before fermentation, to maximize flavor and color extraction. Classic red wine vinification follows at temperature of 23-25oC. The wine is matured in French oak casks for 12 months and 12 months in the bottle, before release. Can be aged for further 5 to 8 years.

Average Production: 65.000 bottles
