2020 | Domaine de Kalathas | 10 + 12

$159.00

Description:

Ripe and rich yet restrained, with focused fruit framed by a deep saline minerality and a classical, well-balanced structure. An exceptional wine made from some of Europe’s oldest vines: very old aspro potamisi, gently foot-trodden and vinified in stainless steel.

Domaine de Kalathas was founded by Jérôme Charles Binda on the Cycladic island of Tinos in 2011. Situated in the middle of the Aegean, the estate works the rare sandy granitic soils of the Kalathas Valley, producing distinctive wines from a 10-hectare plot of rocky terraces. Jérôme and his son Gabriel craft wines that have garnered acclaim in gastronomic circles worldwide for their depth, saline tension and remarkable food-friendliness.

Highly recommended—this is a bottle worth seeking out.
