The Papagiannakos Winery is located in Mesogaia, in the heart of the Attiki Vineyard which covers an expanse of 6,500 Ha. The heritage variety of the vineyard is Savatiano, wrought from 70-year-old vines. The deep roots of the vines penetrate to 20 metres in search of water and the nutrients found in the soil. The yield is small and of the highest quality, rendering 4,000 kgs of the finest, concentrated essence of Savatiano per hectare.
The vines are pruned in the traditional method adopted by previous generations, training the stumps in the shape of a low open-cup bush-vine – this preserves the robustness of the vine and protects the grapes in the hot month of August when the strong wind blows, just before the harvest.
Indigenous Greek varieties such as Assyrtiko, Malagouzia and Agiorgitiko are also cultivated with exceptional results, alongside the cosmopolitan varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
This Rosé is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Agiorgitiko.
On the nose, aromas of red berries, watermelon, and pomegranate, with a hint of citrus notes. These aromas are followed by a palate that combines juicy strawberry and raspberry flavours, accented by a zesty acidity that balances the fruit’s natural sweetness.
The wine’s crisp, clean finish and light body make it incredibly drinkable and versatile, suitable for pairing with a variety of foods like shellfish, white meats, salads or sipping on its own.
