Mikra Thira Winery Nykteri 2022
Mikra Thira winery follows its own approach to traditional Nykteri, selecting overripe grapes of the three native varieties Assyrtiko, Aidani and Athiri. It vinifies them alltogether, following classic white vinification in stainless steel tanks. Fermentation continues and is completed in French oak barrels. After the end of fermentation, the wine remains in the barrels for 4 months and becomes commercially available sfter staying in the bottle for 1 year.
It has a bright golden yellow color. The aromas consist of citrus peels, green millet, peach, licorice, chamomile, with the minerality being subtle throughout its spectrum, while notes of butter and nuts follow. Full body mouthfeel, with a delightful oily sensation, sharp acidity and a long aftertaste.
