Domaine Hatzimichalis Kapnias White is a single-varietal dry white wine made from 100% Chardonnay, sourced from the specific "Zygos" vineyard in the Atalanti Valley (PGI Atalanti Valley).
Appearance: Intense golden yellow.
Aromas: Dominated by aromas of tropical fruits (pineapple, mango), nuts, honey and vanilla, with the characteristic smoky note of the barrel.
Palate:Rich, oily and full-bodied, with balanced acidity and a long finish.
Vinification: Fermentation takes place in new French oak barrels, where the wine remains for 8 to 10 months with its lees (sur lie), gaining volume and complexity.
Aging Potential: It is one of the few Greek white wines capable of aging, evolving beautifully for 5 to 7 years from the harvest. Over time, the intense tropical fruit and fresh oak aromas transform into more complex notes of nuts, honey, butterscotch and dried fruits, while the palate becomes even more luscious and full-bodied.
Ideally paired with fatty fish (salmon, grouper), lobster pasta, white meats with creamy sauces and smoked cheeses. Best served at 10-12°C.
