Origin

The Limnio Ismaros Red is produced in the region of Kavala, Northern Greece, an area known for its rich viticultural heritage and ideal Mediterranean climate that favors the cultivation of indigenous grape varieties.

Variety

This wine is made exclusively from the Limnio grape, an ancient indigenous Greek variety renowned for its deep color and robust character.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo controlled fermentation at moderate temperatures to preserve the varietal aromas. The wine is aged in stainless steel tanks to maintain freshness and highlight the natural characteristics of the Limnio grape.
