Ktima Gerovassiliou
Epanomi Chardonnay
Epanomi, Macedonia, Greece
Guava with slight hints of roasted onion on the nose. Palate is pure passion fruit. I saw that this was paired with a lamb dish on the tasting menu and thought the spacing was just off (that it surely went with the dish above) but was happily wrong. This paired so well with a complex dish that had vine leaves, dill, pistachio and yogurt.

Aug 22nd, 2023Very deftly oaked, vibrant and with great energy.
Nice reduction with toasted sesame, flinty notes. Cool, fresh. Green rather than yellow fruit - underripe pineapple, green papaya. Highly enticing.
On the palate this poised, elegant, with tension, juicy acidity and nice depth. Much more exotic on the palate with guava, pineapple and a bit of spice with the oak adding to the breadth. The vibrant acidity holds everything in check.
Not a Meursault but not far at all.
Unexpectedly delicious.

Simply a spectacular Chardonnay from somewhere you wouldn’t expect. Peach on the nose, soft oak, minerality and citrus on the palate and a finish that lingers forever. Wow!

Мякоть груши, тропики, ваниль, цитрусы. Выпрыгивает из бутылки буквально. Свежее, яркое. Отлично!

Sep 8th, 2019Ситро! Уиии, то самое ситро из СССР, чуть ванильки, медопродукты. Полное, сладковатое, с интересной игрой бочки и дыма на финише. Для соло. Очень хорошо.

Wow, this C from Greece goes down unexpectedly well with me. French style with pleasant aromatic accents.
