The wine region of Corfu
Ionian PGI (1996) on the island of Corfu facing Albania, mild and unusually rainy climate for Greece, limestone and marl soils. Kakotrygis is the ancestral signature autochthon (≥60%, cited by Thucydides c. 400 BC) and king white: pale yellow robe, lively and aromatic with citrus, white flowers, tropical fruits and a Mediterranean herbal touch. Petrokoritho as a complementary white.
The wine region of Ionian Islands
Greek PGI of the Ionian Sea islands (Corfu, Cephalonia, Zakynthos, Ithaca, Lefkada, Kythira), temperate maritime climate. Robola of Cephalonia is the indigenous signature white — taut and mineral with bright citrus, lemon, green apple, white flowers and a flint-saline note from limestone altitude (Mount Ainos), brilliant acidity. Golden Muscat and Mavrodaphne as sweet fortified historical cuvées. Rare indigenous Vostilidi, Tsaousi and Zakynthino as complements.
The word of the wine: Botrytis cinerea
This fungus, also called noble rot, develops during the over-ripening phase and is an ally of great sweet white wines, when it concentrates the juice of the berries. It requires the humidity of morning fogs and beautiful sunny days, gives musts very rich in sugar and brings to the wines the famous taste of "roasted".
