Dimitris and Giannis Mpougiouris are definitely amongst the youngest winemakers in the country and have become famous mainly for their Malagouzia. They take care of the privately-owned vineyards in Erythres, Attica as if they were their own children and know them bit by bit. That way they noticed that a certain part of the vineyard of Assyrtiko has rocky soil and better drainage. This, in simple words, translates into greater concentration and expressiveness in the final wine. They decided to vinify this piece separately and after fermenting it in stainless steel tanks, they put the wine in two French second-hand oak barrels. They left it there for 6 months on its fine lees, in order to acquire a rich oily character and impressive complexity.

Assyrtiko Oaked Mpougiouri Estate will become one of your favorite white wines!

Assyrtiko Oaked Mpougiouri Estate has medium lemon color and complex aromas of vanilla, smoke, honey, tangerine, lemon, peach, toast, and grapefruit.

In the mouth, it has a rich body, refreshing acidity, and creamy texture. The ripe fruits are mixed with sweet spices, brioche, smoke, and dried nuts in a uniquely delicious whole.
