Product Description
DRY WHITE WINE AOSQ* LIMNOS *Appellation of Origin of Superior Quality Alcoholic Strength: 13 % vol A wine crafted from organically grown grapes from the Muscat of Alexandria grape variety which is cultivated in many of Greece's regions with the island of Limnos fully meeting this grape variety's needs. The area's particular microclimate meets the needs for proper growth and maturation of the Muscat of Alexandria in such an ideal manner that, rightfully so, the wines crafted from it bear the designaton "AOSQ Limnos". A brilliant golden-green in colour, this wine releases a bouquet of aromas with jasmin and evening primrose predominating and notes of white-fleshed fruits following. Its mouth reveals its careful vinification and testifies to the wine's well-structured, round body, refreshing acidity, and a lingering aftertaste that is delightfully buttery. Enjoy it at 9-10°C on its own, or as an accompaniment to seafood appetisers, grilled fish, and cheese platters.

Product History
Most of the Greek white grape varieties have roots that are lost in the mists of time. They give us wines that are easily identified by the distinctive elegant aromas of citrus blossoms and ripe yellow fruit, such as lemon, lime or Peach and yellow apple. The level of fruitiness that you taste in a wine leads to very different growing regions.
