Estate White 2022 – Ktima Gerovassiliou

The Estate White Ktima Gerovassiliou  Assyrtiko and Malagousia  grapes underwent skin contact maceration to extract aromas.    The Estate White Ktima Gerovassiliou fermentation followed in stainless steel at controlled temperatures of between 18-20°C. The wine was clarified by gravity and then matured on the lees for several months. Gently fined prior to bottling.

At Ktima Gerovassiliou, the single, private 74 hectare vineyard is cultivated with great care and enthusiasm, which leads to constant research and experimentation with Greek and international varieties. New technological advances blend well with tradition throughout the vine growing and vinification processes to produce high quality wines that carry all the distinct characteristics of the terroir of Epanomi. The climate is Mediterranean with mild winters and hot summers, tempered by sea breezes. The vineyard is surrounded on three sides by the sea, which is three kilometres away, while its west side faces the Thermaic Gulf, Mount Olympus and the beaches of Pieria. The vines are grown in soils which are mainly sandy with a few clayey substrates and calcareous rocks. It is rich in sea fossils, as the surrounding hilly area was formed by sea deposits.
