EMPHASIS Chardonnay

Produced from the cosmopolitan variety Chardonnay. The grapes come from a selected plot on the slopes of mount Menoikio at an altitude of 550 meters, where low yields per acre prevail.

Vinification:

The light pressing of the grapes is carried out with the whole bunches, while the wine ferments and matures in oak barrels, oak tanks and ceramic amphorae for 6 months.

Characteristics:

Bright, golden color. Beautifully evolved nose of aromas of pineapple and mango on a palate of honey and delicate vanilla-like hints of the oak. Its mouth is round and generous, giving a feeling of the sweetness of Chardonnay and it is balanced in acidity with a long-lasting freshness on the finish. Suggested aging even up to 10 years after harvest.
