Volacus Malagousia 2017
(13.2% abv, 6 months on the lees, produced in 1.700 bottles). Tight and focused, with ripe apple, peach and green tea aromas. Structured, salty and very mineral, with mouthwatering acidity. Definitely not the Malagousia we know, but rather, a new intriguing interpretation of the variety. A must try. A note on the wines of Volacus: 2017 has been the third vintage for Volacus producing nowadays one of the most characterful Malagousia in Greece. Michalis Kondizas is a hard worker, a farmer who has further invested in buying more land. 2017 saw the release of the maiden vintage of Assyrtiko which when tasted was very tight due to the very recent bottling.
