Strofilia White Dot Moschofilero-Roditis Dry White, Peloponnese

A blend of 80% Moschofilero, from the Mantinia region in the centre of the Peloponnese, and 20% Roditis, which is harvested from the mountainous slopes of Aigialia situated in the north of the island. Separate vinification for both varieties is practised, with free-run juice collected and refrigerated prior to a low-temperature alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, post-fermentation lees contact is carried out to enhance the wines zesty nature. Pale yellow, with aromas of rose petals, lemon blossom and citrus, the palate is characterized by fresh aromatic fruit, backed by a soft round textured finish. The wine gets its name from a white rock which can clearly be seen as a 'white dot' high above a vineyard where the grapes are grown.
