Seiradi Red PFC (Paros Farming Community) is a juicy, fresh red wine from Paros that showcases a whole new side of Mandilaria—through a modern, minimal winemaking approach. Not even a trace of oak, and silky, refined tannins will just win you over—even if Mandilaria usually makes you cringe.
Seiradi Red PFC is made entirely from Mandilaria, a grape variety with deep roots in the traditions of Paros. The Paros Farming Community team, led by Dimitris Mansolas, set out to reimagine the variety in their own way. It all starts with cold maceration to extract vibrant color and gentle tannins. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures to preserve the grape’s pure, primary aromas. The wine then rests on its lees for six months, with weekly bâtonnage, building texture and complexity.
Serve it slightly chilled, and pair it with light meat dishes or classic Greek summer vegetable stews (ladera).
