Product Notes

Ktima Gerovassiliou Chardonnay is a splendid Greek white wine hailing from Epanomi, Thessaloniki. This premium wine displays a vibrant yellow hue and a distinctive nose of ripe tropical fruits, lemon zest, and delicate botanical nuances. On the palate, it is finely-tuned, ripe with integrated acidity, offering pleasing hints of melon, pear, and bright citrus notes. The finish is long, refreshing, with a trace of minerality. Matured in French oak barrels, its complexity is beautifully balanced, adding a subtle toasty dimension. Ideal for seafood and poultry dishes, Ktima Gerovassiliou Chardonnay is indeed a sophisticated indulgence.

Tasting Notes

Bright yellow-gold with a rich mouthfeel, honeyed texture and citrusy scents on a background of smoke and dried nuts. It has a full, rich, complex taste and can be aged for several more years due to its strength and character.
