  2017 Manzan, Casa Lo Alto

  £1995

Once they arrive, they undergo spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts. After pressing the juice is then decanted into barrels to rest on its lees for approximately 10 months.

  2023 Petritis, Kyperounda Winery

  £1995

  This wonderful 2019 Petritis from Kyperounda Winery in Cyprus is made from the Xynisteri grape variety, pronounced (Sin-ees-ter-ee), which is a native grape to the island.  These indigenous grapes are grown on the southern slopes of the Troodos Mountains, in some of the highest vineyards in Europe. The plots sit on rocky terraces, where the soils are made up of sandy clay. Due to the altitude of the vineyards, Kyperounda invariably harvests approximately one month later than vineyards at half their elevation and the long hang time results in concentrated flavours in the fruit, while preserving refreshing acidity.

  In the glass, it has delicious aromas of citrus fruits, candied lime, lychee and a touch of spice and vanilla. It is a medium-bodied yet refreshing wine with a long, persistent finish. 20% of the wine was matured in new oak barrels for two months which has added a subtle oak complexity to the wine.  This will be a great match with white fish, lean meat and canapes/tapas.
