Chatzivariti Estate is a family affair rooted in Goumenissa, beginning in 1994 when Vangelis Chatzivaritis planted his first vineyard. Chloe’s return from France brought fresh energy, blending biodynamic philosophy with artistic sensitivity. The MiNiMus series is a collection of distinctive wines that embody Chloe’s approach to “natural approach” in winemaking.
Mi Assyrtiko 2023 is made entirely from organically grown Assyrtiko in Filiria, Goumenissa. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts in six‑year‑old French oak barrels, without any additives. The wine matures for three months in oak barrels, is bottled unfiltered, and then rests for another six months in the bottle. The result is a wine with crisp acidity and the variety’s signature minerality, while the oak adds depth and complexity without overshadowing the terroir.
Chloe Chatzivariti’s Mi Assyrtiko 2023 is simply delightful!
