Garalis Winery Salome ØKO

Lucious Muscat sweet wine with a classic expression of sweetness, exuberance and
expressiveness. A wine that is only released in select years. Light in structure. Refreshing. Served a little chilled with desserts, fresh fruits and cheese.

The vines grow in the volcanic soils of the island of Lemnos, cultivated organically, with no chemical intervention, irrigation or fertilization. The grapes are left on the vines to overripe and are harvested in mid-September.

They arrive at the winery in small crates followed by drying on nets for 5 days. After crushing and light pressure in a pneumatic press, the wine is transferred to stainless steel tanks to begin alcoholic fermentation, with commercial yeasts. After the completion of fermentation, stabilization, filtering and bottling follows.

Salome has wonderful aromas reminiscent of sweet grapes, crème brulée, white currant, rose petals, dried apricots, honey and honeycomb. Sweet and generous on the palate, with moderate acidity, high alcohol, full body and a long aftertaste.

This sunny Muscat of Alexandria also pairs beautifully with chocolate flavours such as a chocolate tart or a mosaic, contributing a honeyed allure, and is great next to your espresso.
