White wines from Crete tasting (Materia Prima Pagrati): The wine shows a very hazy dark yellow/caramel color The wine shows high intensity in the nose, nutty, ripe citrus, pear, almond, some floral notes, yeast and oak. In the palate, the acidity stands taller than expected, nutty, oxidative notes almost like a manzanilla, dried fruits, spicy hints, herbs, medium body, medium finish. The wine seems to be fully developed. After some time in the glass, you get apricot in all shapes and forms, overripe, marmalade, chutney!

The golden color is showing the age of the wine balancing on the oxdised level. The wine has really strong acidity and beauiful nose, i could smell this wine forever. The finish is never ending filling your mouth with flavors. I believe the wine is best to be consumed now, i can hardly believe it can get any better.

Great great wine...
Deep golden colour (unfiltered).
Aromas of dried apricots, incence, wax and honey. Nice acidity with complex flavour. Long finish.
