Halara Rosso is a natural red wine made by a group of "crazy" and passionate friends and is an anthem to the relaxed (Halara means relaxed) summer holidays in the Greek islands as its name implies! If you do not understand what we mean, read below the special story of this unique wine!
Well, this is how it goes. The "group of 6" consists of Nino Barraco, Giovanni Scarfone (Bonavita), Francesco Ferreri (Tanca Nica), Corrado & Valeria Dottori (La Distesa), Francesco De Franco (A 'Vita) and Stefano Amerighi. These 6 friends and winemakers are fans of natural winemaking and are quite famous for the natural wines they make, all over the world. So, one summer during their vacation in Tinos, they became familiar with and lived by the term halara (relaxed), which has a Greek trademark on it!
Inspired by this experience and they decided to make a juicy red wine that one can enjoy without much fuss. Thus, Halara was born, which consists of Parpato, a local and rare grape variety of Sicily. The wine is fermented with indigenous yeasts, a percentage with whole bunches, in stainless steel tanks. Then it matured there for 6 months with its fine wine lees and it was bottled unfiltered.
Halara Rosso includes all the red fruits of the Greek summer and the fresh herbs that smell in the white and blue yards of Cyclades.
