▸ Deep bright pink with an abundance of persistent fine bubbles. ▸ Aromas of wild strawberries, cherries and ruby tomato. ▸ On the palate, it is refreshing with perky acidity that balances with the residual sugar and producing a pleasant aftertaste. ▸ The vineyard is located in Florina, Northwestern Greece in the Amyndeon appellation. The high altitude (600m) and poor sandy soil lead to the production of wines that display finesse and interesting aromatic characters. ▸ Vinification involves a short fermentation in traditional method. The wine stays with the lees and is stirred for a few months before transferring to the tanks for the second fermentation, during which the bubbles are formed.

Food pairingsExcellent aperitif; pairs wells with Mediterranean cuisine, spicy Asian cuisine and oily fishes.
