Wine: Amaryllis White

Producer: George Kokotos

Type: Dry Table white wine

Grape Varieties: Savatiano

Vineyard: Grapes are bought from selected vineyards in the foothills of Mount Pendeli, northern Attica at an altitude of 450m. In this area where snow falls in winter and the summer nights are cool, the Savatiano grape ripens slowly, retaining its acidity to give a fresh, fruity wine.

Soil: Sand and clay with limestone subsoil

Yield: 90hl/ha

Vinification: Grapes are picked in small baskets and transported direct to the Willmes pneumatic press. Preliminary debourbage and fermentation at controlled temperatures of 17°C. Wine is bottled and sold within the year.

Analysis:
Alcohol 11.5%vol.
Total acidity 5.0g/l.
Residual sugar less than 1g/l.

Tasting Notes: Bright white-yellow colour with green highlights. Elegant aromas of lemon blossom and fruits emphasizing on apple are present in the nose. Soft mouth with balanced acidity gives a good fruity impact on the palate and an excellent long finish. Serve at 8-10°C, as an aperitif or with a great variety of cold dishes.
