Description
Kyr-Gianni's Paranga is a wine with intense yet refined aromas of jasmine, white-fleshed peach, and apricot, typical of Malagousia. The freshness of the high-altitude Roditis is pleasantly balanced, giving the blend crisp acidity and vibrancy.
The long, full, fruity finish supports its flavor intensity and underscores a wine of charming character, from an exceptional vintage.
Serve chilled. It is delightful on its own or paired with Mediterranean dishes.
Vineyard
The vineyard is located at an altitude of 700 m in the Agios Panteleimonas wine-growing region of the Amyntaio PDO zone in northwestern Greece. Average yields do not exceed 800 kg per stremma. The vineyard soils are sandy and contribute to the production of wines with exceptional finesse and rich aromas. The microclimate is characterized by cold winters and warm summers, moderated by the presence of four lakes in the area, which favor the cultivation of white grape varieties.
Winemaking
Pre-fermentation maceration (skin contact) is used to extract the aromatic precursors found in the grape skins, which contribute to the wine's subsequent aromatic profile. This is followed by static settling and inoculation with selected yeasts suited to bringing out the variety's aromatic character. Micro-oxygenation and four months of bâtonnage in tank give the wine structure and a rich, creamy texture.
