Features

Le lieu Parcelle de 40 ans dans la commune semi-montagneuse de KOUTSI à NEMEA, à une altitude de 450-550 m avec une pente intense # 15% & direction N.S.O. Ce vignoble est taillé très sévèrement afin de réduire ses hauts bourgeons fertiles.

Le climat Des hivers froids et humides avec des températures basses qui descendent rarement en dessous du point de congélation. Les étés sont chauds, sans températures excessivement élevées et avec peu d'averses en juin. Typiquement, un long automne de type indien succède à l'été. Les journées chaudes de septembre avec des nuits nettement plus froides et les conditions sèches synthétisent un modèle climatique idéal pour une bonne maturation. Les précipitations totales (600-700 mm par an) se produisent principalement entre octobre et mars.

Le sol Il se compose d'une couche d'argile peu profonde (70-80 cm) qui repose sur le sol mère de chaux avec un ph relativement neutre. Faible teneur en matière organique, comme la plupart des sols calcaires en Grèce. Sur les pentes des collines où se situent la plupart des vignobles, les sols se drainent assez bien mais sont exposés à l'érosion.

Le cépage 100 % Agiorgitiko

Vinification En cuve inox

Elevage En barriques

Dégustation : la robe est grenat sombre translucide. Le nez évoque la crème de mûre, la cerise noire avec une petite pointe résineuse et des notes toastées / épîcées. La bouche est ronde, ample, veloutée, mariant un fruit bien mûr et des notes boisées. La finale affiche des tannins plus affirmés et une plus grande intensité aromatique, avec une persistance sur le pain grillé, le café et les épices.

What is an author wine?

This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.

An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.

This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.

As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
