Rožinis sausas
Rosé vinification involving extended maceration of several hours. Alcoholic fermentation exclusively takes place in oak barrels in the presence of fresh resin. Prior to bottling, the wine stays in the barrels for approximately 6 months in order to age on fine lees. The final selection is an exceptionally well-prepared blend.
Deep rosé colour with violet highlights. The aromas of fresh wild strawberries balance with the refreshing notes of resin, which change between mastic and herbs, and come together on the smoked background of the barrel. The typical acidity of the Xinomavro variety adds a freshness to the wine and balances with its aromatic intensity before it ends in a long spicy finish.
Serve at 8-9 ºC with grilled mushrooms, seafood, smoked salmon served plain or with pasta, fish in red sauce.
Kechris is one of the oldest family-run wineries in northern Greece, and its history began when Evangelos Kechris brought the first glass bottles from America to Greece in 1911 and began bottling wine. The family specializes in the production of the most traditional Greek wine - Retsina. Kechribari (amber) began production in 1939, and in 2003 Retsina became the first to be awarded a gold medal at the International Wine Exhibition in Thessaloniki. Kechris winery is now most famous for their first-ever 2005 Tear of the Pine Retsina, which is made from Assyrtic grapes, matured in barrels and only a very small portion of the resin itself is added. This, special, Retsina won gold medals at the prestigious World Wine Championships.
