Vinification of the Aspros Lagos white from Douloufakis Winery

The grapes for the Aspros Lagos white grow in the picturesque region of Crete, where the Mediterranean climate and volcanic soil provide ideal conditions for viticulture. The grape varieties used to produce this wine come exclusively from hand-picked grapes. The harvest takes place in the first half of September, when the grapes have reached their optimal ripeness.

After the harvest, gentle processing takes place. The grapes are softly pressed to preserve the valuable aromas and the fresh, fruity character. The must is then fermented at controlled temperature. This vinification technique ensures that the lively fruit aromas are clearly reflected in the final product. After fermentation, the wine ages for several months on the fine lees, which adds additional complexity and smoothens the texture.
