In the third year of its production, Coryphee of Rira Vineyards has been well into the top Gewurztraminer in Greece. We knew that the Alsatian variety fitted the area like a glove. It likes the mountains, the sea breeze and the view. Yes, we know that it didn’t have it in its birth place, but between us, who wouldn’t like it?
With experience contributing year after year to the result, Coryphee seems to be learning incredibly fast. And if it was great last year, this year it is simply amazing. And if last year it started climbing to the top of Gewurztraminer in Greece, with the harvest of the 2018 it has definitely gone over the top!
The Coryphee 2018 Rira Vineyards had all the love and affection it needed. Lees and regular battonage gave volume and texture while a hint of sweetness boosts freshness experience in a completely new level.
Ask anyone in botilia.gr. The Coryphee 2018 Rira Vineyards is our favorite Greek Gewurztraminer! End of story.
