Pre-fermentation maceration in controlled temperature environment, while the grapes remained in contact with the juice for 7 days (Skin Contact) in each tregos separately. Alcoholic fermentation at graded temperatures. Maturation for 12 months in French oak barrels of 3rd use and low toasting. The wine remained on its lees for 12 months with periodic stirring. Aromas of lemon blossom, citrus, bergamot, jasmine, and white-fleshed fruits on the nose. Palate has ripe citrus fruits & nectarines with vanilla notes, sweet spice and a peppery hint of ginger. It surprises pleasantly with its live acidity. Of particular interest is its rare ability for aging and its ability to evolve constantly in the bottle. Ready for consumption. Keep it in the bottle for 7-12 years for maximum results. Ideal with fish, white meats, pasta and cheeses.

Grampsas
The Grampsas Winery is located in the semi-mountainous village of Lagopodo at the foot of Mount Vrachionas in Zakynthos (Zante), one of the largest Ionian islands across from Kefalonia.Childhood memories of grape harvest scenes smell and meaningful conviviality has led the two brothers, Christos and Tassos, to create a modern winery within the Estate they grew up in 2011. Their aim is to showcase the unexplored wealth of local varieties, such as Goustolidi and Avgoustiatis and to restore the island’s reputation as a place with great vinicultural potential on the wine map of Greece. Loyal to the tradition and keeping up to date with winemaking developments, they aim to offer a unique terroir-focusing experience to wine lovers.
