MEGALI PETRA

a limited production dry red Mavrodafni wine.

VINEYARD

“Melissa” is a 55 y.o vineyard in the area of Minies, in south of the island. A place next to the Ionian sea (0 altitude!)  with clay soil.

TIME OF THE HARVEST 9/9

VINIFICATION

After destemming and crashing, the grapes ferment in stainless steel vats and remain on the skins for 7 days at 18⁰C with repeated mixing; at the end of the period racking in stainless steel by soft pressing.

TASTING NOTES

Deep ruby color with a moderate nose, from which black fruits, such as black cherry, stand out along with spices. Medium body with balanced acidity gives a seductive result, in combination with the velvety tannins and the long lasting aftertaste.
