We have said it a million times now, that Crete is a blessed place. Gerto from Toplou Estate is another Cretan wine that we immediately loved, for its exotic and perfectly structured character, and we are sure that it will become one of your favorites. Get ready for something unlike anything you've ever tried!
The enormous diversity of the soil and the altitude differences of Crete create the perfect climatic conditions for the varieties to ripen perfectly and develop all their aromatic elements. Toplou Monastery is located at the easternmost point of the island and over the years has managed to save the ancient Thrapsathiri variety and cultivate it organically, giving it the freedom to evolve and give a complex and special result. The minimal watering creates a very condensed character in Thrapsathiri and the influence of nature has been captured even in the label, which shows the natural inclination of the trees in that particular part of the island, from the rush of the wind.
Gerto from the Toplou Estate is a white wine that has withstood very hot summers and cold strong winds, with refreshing acidity and tropical refreshing aromas. These elements make it suitable for many food pairings.
In short, you won't have any difficulty enjoying its very special profile in many different ways.
