Semi Dry, Sparkling, Rose, Xinomavro, Drink it now, 11,5% alc.
The anticipation was worth it. The rose became Akakies 'sister' and even more playful, more lively and 'festive' mood. Another excellent 'interpretation' of the great Xinomavro winery Kir-Yianni that highlights all the different 'faces' of the vibrant variety. Cerise color, persistent bubbles, red fruit character, freshness and off dry character that will surely seduce you.

Shiny, moderate cherry color, with persistent and good quality lace frothing. Brisk nose, sophisticated, with the bubbles to entrain red fruit flavors, such as cherry and strawberry jam, while in the background presented characteristic fytikotitas cues related to the typical aroma of the variety. In the mouth the wine is medium-bodied with semiarid and alcohol. The acidity balances the off-dry character of the wine, and the taste is fruity with a slight sweetness.

Producer Kir Yiannis
Producer's Description Akaki Sparkling, the sparkling rosé sister Akakion favorite is the new wine Kir-Yianni!

Cool, aromatic, with velvety foam and intense cherry color, Sparkling Akakies built to create new habits and moments and bring wine closer to new premises consumption as the café bar.

For this purpose, Xinomavro, and even more Xinomavro Amyndeo is the ideal choice as it gives us the opportunity to create a wine with special but charming character. Here the grapes mature extreme for Greek conditions. Sandy soil, poor in nutrients, altitude and cold winters contribute to aromatic wines with lighter body and higher acidity.

For the foam Akakies 2010 the selection of grapes at harvest was based on the optimal maturity. After the first fermentation is done with the traditional method of sparkling wine production, wine remained in the lees. Followed by the second fermentation, during which created the bubble, and again stay for some months on lees before bottling.

The result is a wine with vibrant color and rich cherry foaming. On the nose, charming fruity aromas of strawberry and cherry are gaining in complexity due to the characteristic vegetativeness Xinomavro, while the mouth is pleasant, with volume, complex aromatic character and refreshing acidity, which balanced perfectly by the sweetness and distinctive long and fruity aftertaste.

Ideally accompanies moments of celebration and relaxation after work or early evening, with light tsimpito food, fruity or sweet, but alone. Drink it neat or in cocktails
