Kir Yianni Akakies Sparkling Rose 750mL

Introducing Kir Yianni Akakies Sparkling Rosé, a vibrant celebration of Greece's winemaking heritage. This 2022 vintage Xinomavro wine hails from the Amyndeon region, known for its unique terroir.

In the glass, it boasts a mesmerizing cherry hue and a lively mousse, setting the stage for a sensory journey. Dive into pronounced aromas of ripe strawberry and cherry, inviting you to discover the essence of the Greek landscape.

Crafted by Stellios Boutaris, a fifth-generation winemaker and the driving force behind Kir-Yianni, this sparkling rosé reflects the family's deep winemaking roots. Founded in 1997 by his father, Yiannis, following his departure from the renowned Boutari family business, Kir-Yianni has been dedicated to producing terroir-driven wines that truly speak of their origin.

In Naoussa, where Kir-Yianni's 58-hectare vineyard is nestled on the east slopes of Mount Vermion, you'll find a Mediterranean climate that imparts a unique character to the wines. The sandy clay soils, the coolness from the nearby Aegean Sea, and the native Greek grape variety, Xinomavro, all contribute to wines with layered complexity and remarkable aging potential.

On the other hand, Amyndeon, the coldest wine-growing region in Greece, presents its own charm. Located at an altitude of 750 meters above sea level, it enjoys a continental climate, softened by the presence of nearby lakes. The sandy, phylloxera-free soils in Amyndeon yield grapes of exceptional quality.

Kir Yianni Akakies Sparkling Rosé captures the dynamic and balanced essence of Greek winemaking, a reflection of the country's rich history and passion for crafting exceptional wines. Uncork a bottle and savour the taste of Greece's vibrant culture in every sip. Cheers to tradition, terroir, and the tantalizing world of Greek wine.
