Domaine Karanika Cuvee Rose Brut 2023
Domaine KaranikaGrape: Xinomavro 98% Limniona 2%
Vintage: 2021
Type: Sparkling
Fruity, mineral, and slightly yeasty nose, with aromas of strawberry and raspberry. Everlasting tiny bubbles. The wine’s impressive structure is based on acidity and some tannins finished off with a long citrus aftertaste. A cold-climate type of sparkling wine.
Domaine Karanika is Laurens Hartman-Karanika and Annette van Kampen's organic and biodynamic estate in Amyndeon, the cool, high-altitude plateau of northwestern Greece. Drawn to the region's naturally high acidity and old Xinomavro vines, they built the domaine around traditional-method sparkling wine while also producing still wines from Xinomavro, Assyrtiko and other varieties. The winery is largely subterranean and designed to work with the local climate, with solar energy and composting integrated into the farm. Karanika's wines are precise, dry and vibrant, establishing Xinomavro as a compelling source of serious Greek sparkling wine.
