Katogi Averoff Inima Negoska (3 Bottle Minimum)

Characteristics:
Scarlet, with blackcurrant tinges. Aromatic on the nose, showing hints of red fruit, with raspberry and blueberry to the fore, combined with earthy notes. Youthful and full in the mouth, aromatic, elegant, with pleasant acidity, eloquent. A wine of fascinating personality and bold fruity aftertaste.

Vinification:
Pre-fermentation maceration at 12–15°C for seven days. Fermentation for approximately 20 days at 25–30ºC. The young wine is transferred to 300-litre French-oak barrels for malolactic fermentation; it sits on its lees for two months. Malolactic fermentation is followed by batonnage, and the wine is aged for ten months in a cask.

In Metsovo’s local Vlach dialect, inima means ‘heart’. This wine is a soulful expression of the positive energy and enthusiasm of everyone who has put their heart into the production of this new range of wines from Katogi Averoff.
