Retsina Amphora

Tetramythos winery is located in the Peloponnese region of Greece, an area known for its rich viticultural heritage and unique indigenous grape varieties. This wine is produced in Greece, reflecting traditional Greek winemaking styles.

The NV Retsina Amphora is typically made from indigenous Greek white grape varieties, primarily Savatiano and Roditis, which are traditional for Retsina wines.

This wine is produced using traditional methods characteristic of Retsina, including the addition of Aleppo pine resin during fermentation, which imparts the distinctive resinous aroma and flavor. The "Amphora" designation indicates that the wine is aged or fermented in clay amphorae, an ancient vessel that allows micro-oxygenation and preserves the wine’s freshness and texture.
