White sweet
Kir-Yianni Chrisogerakas 2021 is a sweet, late-harvest white wine from the Amindeon region in Northern Greece, crafted from Gewürztraminer and Malagousia grapes.
The aroma reveals notes of white fruit jam, quince, dried apricots, honey, and beeswax. The concentrated fruitiness and sweetness are balanced by a refreshing acidity, which lends elegance to the wine.
The grapes are left on the vines for an extended period to over-ripen and lose some of their water content, naturally concentrating the sugars and aromatic compounds. The grapes are carefully hand-picked and gently pressed, while the wine is fermented and aged in oak barrels.
Residual sugar content: 114.8 g/l.
The history of Kir-Yianni Winery dates back to 1997, when one of the most influential personalities in the Greek wine world, Yiannis Boutaris, separated from his famous grandfather, the Boutari Wine Group, founded in 1879. Currently, his charismatic son, Stellios Boutaris, who is a fifth-generation winemaker, runs the Kir-Yianni winery, whose vineyards are located on the slopes of Mount Vermio, 300-700 meters above sea level. The two main vineyards on the farm, dominated by the local Xinomavro grape, are in the appeals of the Greek region of Amyndeon and Naoussa.
