Amyndeon is the only Greek winemaking region permitted as an AOC for rosé wines. The Kir-Yianni Akakies Rosé is crafted from 100% Xinomavro and will deliver impressive red berry fruit notes on the nose with brambly herbal tones adding complexity and depth. Expect the palate to be fruit driven with impressive cherry, raspberry and strawberry. Bright and fresh, this will be a crisp, food-friendly wine that will be ideal for grilled chicken kebabs. Winner of a Silver Medal at the 2015 International Wine & Spirit Competition. |
