Kir-Yianni Xinomavro Rosé (3 Bottle Minimum)

Variety: Xinomavro (100%)
Type: Dry Rosé Wine / Vegan Certified
Appellation: PGI Macedonia

VINEYARD
The grapes are sourced from the viticultural zone of Macedonia, in the northern part of Greece. The grapes are carefully selected from chosen vineyards, from 40-60 year-old vines. The selection of the vineyards was based on their soil, the vines’ health and capacity to reach full maturity. The climate of the wider region, with significant temperature difference between day and night, as well as the variety in morphology, creates excellent conditions for viticulture.

WINEMAKING
Rigorous grape selection on a conveyor belt and direct pressing. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks at temperatures between 17–19 °C. The wine stays in contact with its fine lees for 3 months with occasional mild stirring (bâtonnage).

TASTING NOTE
Salmon pink colour. The nose is layered, dominated by floral aromas and complemented by stone fruits, as well as by subtle herbal notes in the background. On the palate, the mouth is fruity as the stone fruit character carries through, and crisp thanks to the vibrant acidity. Refined, balanced finish. A great option as an aperitif, while also pairing perfectly with Mediterranean dishes, fried starters, and seafood.
