Manolesakis Estate2023 “Exis” Red, Manolesakis Estate
Macedonia, GreeceVintage: 2023
This blend of Limnio and Moschomavro shows a complex bouquet, with gooseberry and blueberry from the Moschomavro grapes; and cherry, plum with hints of clove and cinnamon from the Limnio. Velvety smooth on the palate with a fresh and elegant finish.
This wine is a blend of two indigenous varieties: Limnio, which produces full bodied wines, with a relatively high alcohol content and a distinctive herbal character of bay leaves; and Moschomavro which produces fresh wines, with noticeable acidity, soft tannins and aromas redolent of ripe red fruit, grapes and cloves. The vineyard is located in Drama, where the microclimate has been considered the perfect spot for grape cultivation since ancient times. Situated at an altitude of 200 to 300 metres above sea level, the vines are cultivated in the traditional way and are planted in linear rows. The soil has a high clay content, which retains moisture during the warm, dry summers to nourish the vines.
