Why do we love it?
When you find a few bottles from the top Moschopolis 6 of the 2017 vintage, you have the duty to share them! This is exactly how we feel and we present you the last bottles of 2017 that clearly prove the greatness of this wine that not only ages uniquely but begs you to "forget" it for a while in your cellar!
Now you know for sure, everything that George Germanis creates, with the many years of experience in the largest wineries in the country, is just perfect. Alice Germanis, Dimitris Paralidis, and Theodore Germanis, the new and promising generation of the winery, watch with him the whole process, from the vineyard to the barrel, and leave nothing to chance.
For Moschopolis 6, Assyrtiko grows and ripens in the family's dry, seaside vineyards and is harvested by hand at the right time. The blend is supplemented by 10% Xinomavro, which is vinified with the Blanc de Noir method (white from red), and even in such a small amount it comes and gives a wonderful floral and herbaceous character to the wine. The wine is then fermented with ambient yeasts (to emphasize the terroir) in new (30%) and old (70%) French oak barrels. It matures for 6 months and this gives it its name, 6. The wine is bottled unfiltered and is intended for long-term aging since it has everything it needs to go for it: impressive fruit concentration, sharp acidity, and dense structure!
The 2017 vintage showed from the first moment that it had a lot to give… Three years after, the wine not only rocks but shows in every way that it has an ace up its sleeve!
