ΔΑΚΡΥ ΤΟΥ ΠΕΥΚΟΥ The retsina that changed the perception about the whole category, placing traditional Greek wine among the finest products of the international vineyard. This is the first retsina with an impressive aging potential. VARIETIES Assyrtiko 100% REGION Goumenissa AGEING 10 years The white varieties benefited from the lack of rainfall and lengthy heatwave throughout the summer, which resulted in the production of high-quality fruit. Thus, Assyrtiko produced magnificent wines thanks to the excellent balance between the acidity and sugars in the grapes. The vinification process starts with pre-fermentation maceration. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in new oak barrels of varying origins and types, and is followed by ageing for 6 months on the lees with regular bâtonnage.
