Domaine Zafeirakis
Malagousia
Pritty golden yellow, quite brilliant and clean. Scents of fresh linen, a bit of detergent, but also very nice mineral notes on the nose. Second tear citrus aromas. Beautiful presentation right away on the palate, showing both strcture and massive mineral notes. Full bodied, with soft, leathery texture. Bright acidity showing notes of ripe grapefruit and green melon, but also the sea shell, saline solution minerality, leading to a mouth-watering persistant finish. Pretty volcanic rock flavors at the end. 91 pts.

Jul 1st, 2014Crisp, alive, saline, stone driven with yellow fruit, wild flowers, smoke, showing a semi-viscous texture filled with sweet fruit and refreshing acidity. A hidden gem!

Oct 3rd, 2013In the aroma: white flowers, pears. On the palate, medium body and acidity, with a creamy finish. Not especially complex, but well balanced and enjoyable. Has the flavor profile of a Viognier but light.

May 19th, 2016Not deeply complex but solid minerality with a noticeable funk that makes it stand out.
