Description
Tasting Notes
Classic aromas of dried fruit, honey, and apricot meet subtle baking spice. On the palate, fresh acidity balances natural sweetness, with gentle tannins giving playful lift and a lively finish.
Serving
Bright, balanced, and adaptable. It’s at home with richer, fattier proteins such as grilled salmon, sardines, or seared foie gras, where its freshness cuts through the weight. The sweetness and acidity also make it work with Cypriot classics like sheftalia or slow-cooked pork.
In cocktails, it’s just as comfortable, perfect in a spritzer or a sour.
Serve slightly chilled (~10°C).
