Want to try something really extraordinary and very rare?
A forgotten and extinct since phylloxera variety, wild yeasts of the region and one of the most talented Greek winemakers put their stamp on Vradyano Wild Fermentation 2012, one of the most unique and rare wines that you can try.
Kostas Vryniotis began to revive the forgotten variety Vradyano, which became extinct since the Phylloxera of 1955. The persistent efforts of himself and Vryniotis Winery team were rewarded and now Vradyano puts its mark on the Greek vineyard, mostly in blends with other red varieties.
Vradiano Wind Fermentation is the first single varietal vinification of the variety. Kostas Vryniotis and oenologist Gregory Skopelitis, believing in the potential of the variety, they took the big risk of using native, wild yeasts, allowing even more authentic and unaffected expression of the variety.
The Vradiano Wild Fermentation 2012 remained 12 months in 225 lt barrels and was bottled in only 289 bottles where it remained for two more years! We uncorked one of them (oops) and about 60 will remain in the winery for further aging.
So... do the math.
