Dougos, Meth’Imon A 2019

Down to just 1% Sauvignon Blanc (from 15% in previous vintages like 2014, 2015) the Dougos Meth'Imon Acacia is progressively transformed into a pure Assyrtiko from mainland Greece. Vines are planted in 1991 at 450 m altitude in schist and sandy clay soils on the slopes of Mount Olympus. 20% is whole-bunch fermented in stainless steel and the rest is skin-contact fermented for 5 days (again in stainless steel) and then transferred in acacia oak to complete the fermentation after 15 days (300 lts with light toast). Matures with the lees for 10 months.
