Lagotopos white 2021 of the Michailidis Estate, one of the premium labels of the winery. An innovative wine since it combines overripe harvest with barrel aging. It is a marriage of two very contradictory varieties, Assyrtiko and Gewurztraminer. The grapes are harvested overripe from a single 4-acre vineyard. The wine is fermented and matured in French oak barrels for about 6 months, giving a complex and explosively aromatic result. On the nose we find enticing aromas of ripe apricot, peach jam, lime, honey, vanilla, sweet rose, caramelized ginger, toast and pink grapefruit. On the palate it has medium to full volume, accentuated acidity and a rich oily mouthfeel. Enjoy the Lagotopos White 2021 of the Michailidis Estate, at a temperature of 10 degrees Celsius, in a glass of white wine.
Goes well with:
Pair it with fatty grilled fish, linguini with quinces and egg tarragon or a lamb with herbs in the wood oven.
