One of the most cosmopolitan varieties in the world, finds its way to the Greece, in a version completely different from the few existing ones. Besides, taking on Pinot Noir is a challenge by itself. Difficult, both in cultivation and vinification, it is always a great challenge for adventurous winemakers who are enchanted by the magical aromas and flavors when you taste it at its best.
For the first time unoaked, the Pinot Noir gave into the hands of oenologist Vassiliki Akriotou and George Kollias, a fine and exquisite red wine. The mountainous vineyards in the slopes of Aegialia gave birth to Orivatis 2023 of Akriotou Microwinery. A lighter version of the beloved "Burgundian" variety, than those we have seen so far shows that perhaps this is the style that suits her best.
Although it is a passepartout wine, do not be afraid at all to pair it with dishes ranging from moussaka to bbq and from pasta with red sauce to grilled salmon. Although on its own, Orivatis is one of those to keep you company all around the year.
