L' Esprit du Lac 2023, is one of those rosés that if they get into your glass, it will be very difficult to do without. Lakes, four in total, and old Xinomavro vines star in this elegant rose wine of Ktima Kir- Yianni.
The four lakes of the Amyndeon plateau cool the hot summers that can be unbearable. For the production of L' Esprit du Lac only the best grapes from the old vines of the historic vineyard of Kali Riza, in the area of Agios Panteleimonas, are used. According to the saignee method, the free-run juice is removed shortly after crushing the grapes and after a short maceration with the skins. This is how it acquires that amazing pale salmon color and its delicate aromatic character.
Its name means "the Spirit of the Lake" and since it is so light and refreshing it suits it perfectly. L' Esprit du Lac is the answer of Ktima Kir- Yianni to the French roses that flood the market. And according to our opinion, it’s a pretty staggering answer since no other rose wine can accompany that ideally summery, Mediterranean dishes like stuffed tomatoes.
Taste it and you will agree with us. You‘ll see it!
