MR. GIANNIS SCAPERDAS FRERES HOMMAGE BRUT ROSE

The harvest of Xinomavro was done manually at the end of September while the grapes entered the press in whole, from where we separated the cuvée which was fermented and aged for 6 months in oak barrels. Then, the yeasts and sugars were added to the base wine to start the second fermentation in the bottle while the wine remained with the lees for 48 months, acquiring a strongly autolytic profile.
It has a soft salmon colour and impressive aromas of sweet tomato, strawberry, bergamot, brioche, apricot, rose doughnut, hazelnut and dough. In the mouth it has a medium body, crisp acidity and creamy foaming. Sweet, red fruits, citrus, notes of biscuit, tomato, yeast, butter and hazelnut fill the palate.
Served at 6-8°C and goes well with bruschetta with sour cream and eggnog, burrata with roasted cherry tomatoes, and eggs.
