Description:

Established in 1966, It is located in the mountainous commune of Alagni (440 metres above sea-level), south of the city of Heraklion, in  Crete. The well-preserved 14th-century stone-presses in the fields around the winery are testament to the area’s long history of grape-growing and winemaking.
Tasting Note:

Aromas of stone fruit with delicate notes of ginger. Marvelously rich grapes have given this wine a generous mouthfeel balanced by a backbone of lean minerality.
