FINE ROSE 2022 - ANATOLIKOS VINEYARDS

They do not give away the title "Fine" to a wine easily. They have proved it so far with both premium labels for Mavroudi and Assyrtiko. The two brothers Nikolaidis long experimented with the rose. This year's results left no room for doubt. The Fine Rose of Anatolikos Vineyards is just born and it is wonderful.

The two emblematic varieties of the Domaine, the local Mavroudi of Thrace and Assyrtiko, meet in a blend (60% - 40%) that deserves the title until the last sip. They are cultivated at the biological, non-irrigated vineyard in the Choirodasos region with the sandy soils. The Fine Rose is the result of the vinification of the two varieties blended in the earliest stages of the process.

Their aim was to create a rosé wine with complexity and finesse. A rose that could accompany dishes ranging from sushi to lightly cooked dishes of Greek cuisine. The thoroughness of the two brothers is now legendary. Taking care of every detail, from the vine until the last dot on the label, Marios and Sakis decided that Fine Rose by Anatolikos Vineyards is the rose that will make them proud. And they mean it.

Fine, as its name gives away, salmon color with orange highlights.

Exuberant nose with intense floral elements. Rose and orange blossom are accompanied by pink Turkish delight, sweet lemon, strawberry, and cherries while herbal hints of chamomile and peppermint give freshness.

The palate is full of surprises! Definitely, a rosé that is unlike any other: the high acidity and really full body in perfect balance. Firiki, strawberry, sweet cherry, lime, bergamot, candy, delight in an excellent condensation that feels like you can almost chew it. Hints of sweetness and alcohol are in full balance with its "generous" character. The endless aftertaste leaves lemon and chamomile sensation in the palate.
