From the Tyrnavos region in Thessaly, central Greece, this wine showcases the expressive character of Malagousia, one of Greece’s most vibrant indigenous white grape varieties. Once nearly extinct, Malagousia has been revived in recent decades and is now prized for its vibrant aromatics and elegant texture.
The 2023 vintage opens with lifted aromas of peach, apricot and citrus blossom, layered with notes of fresh herbs and subtle tropical fruit. On the palate it is bright and beautifully balanced, with refreshing acidity supporting flavours of ripe stone fruit, lemon zest and delicate florals, finishing clean with a gentle mineral edge.

Terroir
Most of the hard work it takes to produce quality wine happens in the vinyard. The soil, the climatic conditions, the aspect, the bodies of water and many more factors, collectively knwon as "terroir" can influence the flavour of wine and give wine distint minerality, depth and character.
