Estate Chatzivaritis VAGGELI! ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME? 750ml

Codice: W30191

“Vaggeli! Are you listening to me?” asked a friend cheerfully across a large table we had for the bottling of our first white wine in 1985 in Goumenissa. This unique wine was created in celebration of the winery’s 10 Year Anniversary in 2017.

VINIFICATION

The must undergoes a pre-fermentation, cold maceration for 6 hours. Following this cold soak, the temperature in the vats is allowed to rise gradually for the alcoholic fermentation to take place. After the alcoholic fermentation is completed, the wine remains in contact with the lees for 3 months.
