Mavrioros | Malagouzia

Mavrioros is translucent, with lemony-yellow and green hues. It is characterized by an intense nose dominated by the presence of fleshy fruits -especially peach-complemented by botanical notes and discreet tones of violet and jasmine. Its mouth is defined by intense acidity and freshness, while it has a lengthy aftertaste centered on stimulating lime notes.

Food Pairing: Mavrioros complements perfectly seafood, white meats and pasta, as well as dishes of Asian and esp. Japanese cuisine. Ideally served at 8 – 10 oC.

Winemaking Notes: This creation is a tribute to the Black Mountain in Corinth, our place of origin. Mavrioros is characterful wine, coming exclusively from a single vineyard that is perched at an altitude of 800 meters at the slopes of Black Mountain (Chelydorea). Dry-farming in loam soil and great drainage lead to exquisite aroma concentrations that lift-off the true potential of the Malagousia variety.
