Vino di Sasso Sklavos White

Category: PGI Cephalonia

Organic Wine

Natural Mineral Wine

Varietal composition: Robola of Kefallinia

Winemaking: A Robola landmark for the winemaking style of the great producer of Kefalonia. Thick and mature with excellent texture but also great precision as a result of the fresh natural acidity. More than 90% of the vineyards are autonomous. They come from the heights of Ainos while the yields are extremely low due to the poverty of the limestone soils that are full of stones. This characteristic ground also gives the name Vino di Sasso to Robola the Slave. The protocol of mild natural vinification means a wine with minimal sulfites and without other interventions. The vinification is done in tanks, with spontaneous fermentations and prolonged contact of the wine with the wine sludge, a trick that enhances the thick and very rich profile of the wine.

Taste: This is a uniquely generous expression of the Kefalonian variety with lots of smoke and minerals. Aromas of apricot, tobacco and flint and a mouth with a rich melanin texture but refreshed by a generous dose of acidity in excellent balance with the ripe fruit. A few years in the bottle and will develop a wonderful smoky expression that rather resembles scorched bread and refers to large terroirs of the planet, such as that of Chablis.

Accompanies: Great for fish dishes and white meat dishes, shellfish, and cheese platters
