Description
The Petritis White from Kyperounda comes from the highest vineyards in Europe at 1400 metres above sea level and is made in the highest winery in Europe (1140 metres above sea level). Made entirely from the Xynisteri grape variety, this wine is bursting with citrus, candied lime and lychee flavours, mingled with touches of spice. It is medium bodied, softly textured and very refreshing.
The gravity-fed winery is built on three levels and is designed for the gentlest possible handling of the grapes and wine. The grapes underwent 10 to 12 hours skin contact pre-fermentation maceration, depending on the temperature of the grapes. Vinification took place in stainless steel tanks to maximise the purity of the fruit. The wine did not go through malolactic conversion in order to retain freshness and enhance the mineral character. 20% of the wine was then matured in new oak for two months, adding subtle oak complexity to the final blend.

Chardonnay
The Hanewald-Schwerdt Chardonnay reveals citrus & stone fruits with nuances of melons and herbs. Silky, lively with nice acidity.There is the merest whiff of old oak to this wine which is used purely to some softness to the mouthfeel. This is very appealing and an extremely enjoyable take on Chardonnay.
