Yes, Kos makes wine. And in some cases excellent wine.
The land of the Aegean island proved uniquely inviting to the cosmopolitan French variety Chardonnay which seems to enjoy herself enormously.
The Chardonnay is a chameleon variety and that is probably what makes it the most beloved around the world. Adapts to its environment and can shape character depending on the mood and the winemaking method her producer chooses to follow.
Maybe it is the sea breeze, the beautiful view from the vineyard, or it is just the hospitality and love of family Triantafillopoulos for the Island and wine, that made the Chardonnay feel at home, waking memories of southern coastal France. The 6 months spent in French oak barrels enhanced the nostalgic feeling by adding volume, velvety, oily texture and smoke, vanilla and wood aromas that will convince even the most demanding.
Delicious, spicy, markedly mineral and salty, the 2013 Chardonnay Triantafillopoulos Vineyards will surprise you with the evolution and intensity hidden in its juice. As for the pairing with food? Just make a note. It is food pairing’s dream material!
