Vinificating a variety whose alter ego grows in Alsace might be a risky business. However, ‘Lenga’ proves that persistence and patience deserve the best award. The acclimatization of Gewurztraminer variety in Euboea was spectacular and gave us the most impressive result.

Rich volume and properties remarkable for wine that has not received the effect of oak.

It is the wine Apostolos Mountrichas dedicated to his wife, Lenga.
