Details
Made from 100% Vradiano, this is a suitably pale rosé with attractive savoury notes, watermelon pip and a lick of iodine. Red fruit interlaces with notes and flavours of blood orange and pink grapefruit, making this a fresh, crisp, elegant alternative to Provence.
Vriniotis Winery, located in central Greece, boasts a rich winemaking tradition. The winery benefits from the region's unique microclimate and soil, producing a diverse range of wines from indigenous and international grape varietals. Known for their commitment to high quality, Vriniotis crafts robust reds and crisp whites that reflect the terroir. We are particularly enamoured by the team's rosé wine, the 'Iama', made from the local Vradiano red grape variety. The winery is a family-owned operation and the team has built a charming cellar door for vinous tourists to visit, allowing them to savour Vriniotis' impressive portfolio of wine. These are well worth a look for any wine drinker who is interested in what is going on in Central Greece, a region tat often operates in the shadow of Greek wines that hail from the Islands or the country's northern territories.

Pairing guide
Bursting with red fruit and cherry flavours, this stunning rosé wine perfectly showcases the quality of Greece’s current output. It’s a great wine for pairing with light dishes and al fresco favourites - homemade chicken and leek pies, chicken kofta, couscous salads with pomegranate and coriander, pasta salads with green olives and feta, to name but a few - and will also pair very well indeed with poached salmon dishes, pasta arrabiata, pizza and grilled sausages.
