For the Blanc Des Coteaux Cuvee Amphora, the blend consists of 45% Assyrtiko, 35% Malagouzia, 15% Vidiano and 5% Aidani grown in certified organic vineyards in the village of Phytia, on the slopes of Mount Vermio. Malagouzia, Vidiano and Aidani are vinified with their skins in amphorae and after they are removed, they remain in contact with the fine lees for 10 months. On the other hand, the whole bunches of Assyrtiko are lightly pressed, but for a long period of time and fermented in wooden barrels, where they remain for a whole year. The wine is bottled unfiltered.
