If you want your white wines overflowing with fresh fruit and flowers, you should better take a look at something else. Have you ever tried an oaked Chardonnay? If you liked it, then Savvatiano Fume 2014 Markou Vineyards is certainly a candidate to become your next favorite white!
Get ready to love a wine with enviable complexity and depth! The Savvatiano Fume 2014 Markou Vineyards of Mark is an exemplary Fume white wine of the varietal Savvatiano, and the biggest surprise we had for some time. Elegant, velvety and smoky in flavor and aromas, it will satisfy the most demanding and delicate palate.
It is an experimental wine from selected vineyards with very low yields. The scarce juice remained in intense burning French oak barrels for 10 months. It was bottled in just 1.000 bottles and a few weeks later, less than half remains, making it one of the "worst" kept secrets of recent months.
You are probably thinking that this does no sound very summery. You are right, but keep in mind that it will be very hard to find something better to escort a fatty grilled fish. If on the other hand it's hard to part with your favorite red wines in the summer, this is as close as you can get.
We'll take a few bottles with us on holiday but will definitely keep some in the cellar for aging for another 3-5 years. Everything indicates that it will evolve very beautifully.
