Description
A great example of refreshing Greek wine, Exis is made from indigenous varieties Moschomavro and Limnio. The Manolesakis Estate vineyards are located in Drama PGI of the Macedonian wine region, where grape cultivation has taken place since ancient times. Vinified separately with maturation on its fine lees for a period of two months, the wine was blended prior to bottling.
The result is a wine with a complex bouquet of gooseberry, blueberry, cherry, plum, hints of clove and cinnamon. Velvety smooth on the palate, it has a wonderfully balancing acidity and an elegant finish showing touches of raspberry, cranberry and wild herbs. A fresh, summery red, try with breads and olives, moussaka, lasagna, or baked aubergine.
Stavros Manolesakis and his father George Manolesakis started creating their own
vineyards in 1989, planting Greek varieties alongside international varieties. Embracing the philosophies of culture, love and a passion for winemaking, they established Manolesakis Estate a decade later.
