Tsaoussi is one of the rarest varieties on the island but it has shown that it has great potential. For this reason, Panos Sarris chose it for his Orange wine

VINEYARD

Ungrafted vines of Tsaoussi,  55 y.o vineyard at Minies, South of Kefalonia.

VINIFICATION

Wild fermented and macerated with the skins for two weeks in stainless steel tanks. The result has a solid structure and very intense aromas of yellow fruits such as quince and citron.

TASTING NOTES

Lygia has a medium orange color and impressive aromas of quince, orange, dried apricot, orange peel, lemon, chrysanthemum, toast, and clay.

On the palate, its structure enchants, with medium body, mild tannins, and refreshing acidity. Juicy orange, nectarine, persimmon, quince, apple compote, dried yellow flowers, and earthy notes compose a special ensemble.
