Why do we love it?
Hoof & Lur by Troupis Winery is an ode to the plateau of Mantinia! In case you're wondering how much some of the world's best critics like it, we'll tell you.
Troupis Winery in Fteri Mantinia is dedicated to Moschofilero since it makes many different versions of the favorite blush variety. Hoof & Lur is the most special version of all and rightly drew the attention of the American press. Yiannis Troupis wanted to make a wine dedicated to tradition and his grandparents, which reflects the terroir of Mantinia. The traditional recipe included fermentation with indigenous yeast, extended skin contact, and minimal use of sulfites. Yes, as you can imagine from the above, Hoof & Lur is an orange, natural, Moschofilero.
Perfect right?
We will close with the quotation of Paula Froelich, of the New York Post: "It is fragrant, flowery, salty, zesty and crazy good!"
Don't miss it!
