Classic expression of the indigenous Savatiano grape from vineyards just outside Athens. The wine is textural with a crisp, citrus-tinged, and lightly saline finish. This is much more than a simple refreshing white wine, it is refreshing but it also has wonderful texture, complexity and good length.

Classical scholars amongst you will need no reminding that Mantineia was the site of two significant battles back in ancient Greek history, the first being the largest land battle of the Peloponnesian war whilst the second saw the end of Spartan domination of the region (thank you Wikipedia.) Any road up, they seem to have settled their various differences and are now focussing on the more important business of making wine. Moschofilero is a native grape which produces rather lovely, quite aromatic styles of white with a really refreshing acidity. Try it with a seafood salad and imagine yourself in a Taverna with the sea lapping at your toes.
