2015 Αερικό

(aeriko – English: spirit)

Aeriko comes from our first commercial harvest, left to mature for eight years in oak. We chose to leave the wine untouched. No corrections, no interventions beyond time itself. Over the years, it gradually moved away from the brightness of youth, becoming softer, quieter, and more layered in character.

2. Tasting Notes & Serving

Profile

Roasted spice, spoon sweets, dried fruit, and caramelised citrus.

The texture is smooth and almost buttery, lifted gently by volatile acidity. Long, steady, and quietly persistent through the finish.

Pairing & Mixology

Aeriko works best with slower, more restrained flavours. Lean meats, game, aged cheeses, rice pudding, cheesecake, or darker chocolate all sit naturally beside it.

Less suited to cocktails. Better treated as something to sit with slowly on its own.

Serve slightly chilled, around 10°C.

3. Methodology

Terrain

Historic PDO region, Mediterranean climate, 600-800m altitude, limestone and magmatic soil.

Viticulture

Family-managed, indigenous varieties, ungrafted, goblet trained, organic, dry-farmed, hand-harvested

Vinification

Two weeks open-air sun-drying, basket pressing, spontaneous fermentation, no vinification additives, unfined, unfortified. INOX ferment, eight years in old French oak.

4. The Lore

The artwork shows a lion spirit moving through the vineyards, drawing from the story of Agios Mamas, just like our Διετής.

At heart, they are the same wine, separated only by time. Here, the lion appears older, quieter, and almost ethereal.
