Why do we love it?
Elegance lies in details and in delicate balance and Kompsos white of Karavitakis Winery has it all! To be precise, it is designed to be the epitome of elegance, combining 3 varieties, each of which gives something different and makes Kompsos what its name implies.
Nikos Karavitakis wanted to create a delicate, aromatic, balanced wine that may accompany almost everything. He had in mind the elegance that comes from marrying different varieties and characteristics but at the same time, he wanted this wine to bear the Cretan mark. The backbone of the blend is Assyrtiko with its structure and lemony acidity. Then comes Vidiano with its oily texture and peachy character. And finally comes Malvasia which adds aromatic intensity and floral, botanical notes. The result is as good as if these three varieties were born to complement each other in an explosion of finesse. The wonderful blend was bottled in an amazing bottle, with a label that is like a true work of art. Put it next to ceviche, sushi, grilled apricots with gorgonzola, fried fish, stuffed peppers and, anything else you can imagine. It really pairs with everything.
Kompsos white of Karavitakis Winery gives lessons of elegance that if you miss, it will be your loss!
