Greece | AchaiaMega Spileo Estate White 2019

Dry White Wine, PGI Achaia. Mild golden – yellow colour with greenish hues. Discreet and delicate on the nose, with aromas of roasted nuts, stone fruit marmalades, herbs and hints of minerality. Well-structured and lush palate, with refreshing acidity. The finish is followed by a long after-taste of roasted fruit.

Late September

After harvesting, the grapes are pressed and undergo pre-fermentative extraction for roughly 4 hours. This is followed by static racking. The grape must is then fermented and aged in new oak barrels of varying sizes, and matures with its wine lees for 6 to 7 months. The settled lees are periodically re-stirred into the wine [bâtonnage]. After bottling, the wine must remain in its bottle for at least 2 years to develop character.

Fish, seafood, meats with white sauces.
