"Paleokerisio" (Old Times) wine (unique of its kind in Greece) is the most prominent example of the revival of a traditional wine, the famous semi-sparkling wine produced in Ioannina since 1600AC.
The 145 acre vineyard is located in a semi-mountainous microclimate, in one of the most remote and distant areas in Northwestern Greece.
About the wine:
"A unique in its kind orange, semi-sparkling and semi-dry wine, which impresses with its distinctive and totally traditional vinification. It is produced from the indigenous white wine grape variety Debina with the addition of a small percentage of the red variety Vlahiko.
It is a special type of wine, which revives the well-known traditional semi-sparkling wine of Ioannina, produced in the past by the locals. The little natural carbonate reveals the richness of flavors and aromas with a sweetness that blends in with all the other elements."
The destemmed grapes ferment in oak casks for about 12 days on the skins. When the temperature starts falling, the first racking occurs of 2-3 total during the autumn season. Second fermentation occurs in closed tanks. The wine is bottled before it ferments completely dry.
