Vintage 2014

Samos sun in a glass! The 2014 vintage is undoubtedly the winery’s emblematic wine. After a late summer harvest from three distinct vineyards, grapes are left to dry under the protection of olive trees, following a long-standing tradition. This wine ages for 19 months in medium and light toasted French oak barrels that bring forth the freshness and richness of Samos muscat.

Andromachi’s Tasting Notes

Charming amber colour, dense and complex on the nose with aromas of dried apricots, raisins, candied pecans, sweet quince, grape must but also vanilla, hazelnut, rose water and a lovely hint of dried flowers. The accented acidity offers freshness and counters the sweetness, while the restrained alcohol and full body create a harmonious whole.
