Produced from selected vine parcels located in The North of Greece, at the village of Agios Panteleimonas in Florina, at the unique plateau of Amyndeon. There lies the cooler viti-vini region of Greece, consisting of an exceptional mixture of elements. High altitudes between 600 – 700 meters and poor sandy soils on a stunning terrain of raw mountainous beauty. Vibrant yellow lemon color. Intense nose with aromas of peach and apricot, complemented by notes of citrus and white blossoms. The mouth is crisp and zesty with balancing acidity and delicate mineral notes in the background. Pleasant lingering finish.

Yiannis Boutaris founded Kir-Yianni in 1997, a year after his stepping down from the family business, with the vision to create a premium Greek wine Estate. Visionary, pioneer, maverick with a true ‘vigneron’ soul, his goal was to produce both a prestigious, terroir-driven Greek wine and a quality-driven range for any occasion. He remains the most influential Greek Winemaker around the world, firm believer of collaborative action and source of inspiration for the younger generations of Greek producers. A larger that wine, larger than life personality.
