  • Maratheftiko (100%)

Vinification & Aging

Grapes are harvested in September. Gentle crushing, 19 days maceration, spontaneous fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures.

Aged for 8 months in used 300L French oak barrels.

Ecosystems

The vineyards cover 25 hectares of land, with new plantings added every year. They are located at an altitude of 400 - 600 m and are influenced by the warm Mediterranean climate and the considerable rainfall (620 mm / year, on average). The surrounding hills, the crystal gypsum, limestone and quartz rich soils, together with the uninterrupted exposure to the winds of the valley, modify the local mesoclimate.

Tasting Notes

A classy medium bodied red with lots of earthy / floral notes and black fruit. Good structure and an ageing potential.
