Tear Of The Pine Retsina

Hand picking of the grapes, careful sorting in the winery, gentle pressing and alcoholic fermentation in used French oak barrels with introduction of high quality fresh pine resin, further ageing for 6-8months on the fine lees before bottling.
Yellow with golden hues. Fine citrus aromas along botanical notes of rosemary, thyme and ginger. Rich and complex style of Assyrtiko retsina, with subtle mineral character, abundance of vanilla and butter notes on the background, pronounced acidity. Impressive complexity and depth with
a very long lasting aftertaste.
