Dryopi Kydonitsa 2024 from Tselepos Wines is a bold, herbal, and expressive take on this beloved Greek variety — and one you’re bound to fall for. Its crisp acidity and fuller body make it a brilliant match for all those lemony dishes of Greek cuisine.
Yiannis and Aris Tselepos have taken on the lively and spirited Kydonitsa, and the results are impressive. It all starts with cold pre-fermentation maceration, followed by fermentation in stainless steel, concrete tanks, and oak barrels. Then, the wine matures for four months on fine lees in stainless steel, acquiring more texture and complexity. Aromas of basil, peach, quince, and lime invite you in — but it’s the juicy, textured, and expressive palate that will truly win you over.
Dryopi Kydonitsa 2024 by Tselepos Wines is not the Kydonitsa you know — it’s the one you didn’t know you needed. Try it and see for yourself!
