Winemaker Notes
The 2019 Domaine Gioulis Sofos White is a pale khaki color. Aromas of ripe apricot, honey, cantaloupe, and white peppercorn with a satiny, tangy, dryish light body and a smooth, compelling, medium-length citron, lemon spritz, and almond finish. A delicious warm-weather white that will pair like a dream with shellfish; refreshing, mineral-focused, and effortlessly drinkable.
Enjoy this wine alongside Feta, Kefalotiri, and brie cheeses, Mediterranean cuisine, oysters, fresh grilled fish, seafood, salads and pasta dishes.
