- This is a fresh, vibrant blend with lifted zesty lemon and green apple notes. It is crisp, with a delicate texture and a juicy, mouthwatering finish. From their vines grown on the slopes of the Valley of the Muses at the foot of Mount Helicon, they aim to produce wines perfectly harmoniously with the ecosystem and represent the historic terroir and the family itself. They succeed: their exquisite wines are vibrant with mountain freshness that evokes the senses.
This wine is named after the Muse: Clio, the inspirational Goddess of History. Each variety was vinified separately; the grapes underwent cool skin contact lasting six hours at 8°C in an oxygen-free environment. Fermentation took place with selected yeasts in stainless steel at controlled temperatures of 18°C to retain the pure fruit flavours and the varietal characteristics. Maturation lasted one month; the wines were blended, aged for another two months, and bottled young to fully express the vibrancy.
A fresh, vibrant and aromatic blend with lifted notes of zesty lemon and green apple. Crisp, with a delicate texture and a juicy, mouthwatering finish.

| Winery | The vines are grown on the slopes of the Valley of the Muses at the foot of Mt. Helicon, at an altitude of between 500 and 570 metres and a gradient of between 3% and 7%. The continental climate in the region experiences cool, wet winters and warm summers. However, proximity to the small Permisos River helps to temper extremes. The bush vines were planted in 1947 in fertile soils of a mixed composition ranging from sandy loam to clay loam, producing rich aromatics wines. The vines have a north-to-south orientation, which helps the grapes reach optimal phenolic ripeness and sugar concentration. Cold air currents come down from Mount Helicon, cooling the vines and allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and retain acidity. Cultivated according to the principles of integrated agriculture, the grapes are hand-harvested in the cool of the early morning to protect the environment. |
