Variety | Kotsifali, Mandilari & Razaki
€8.00
Embrace the spirit of summer with Rehitis Rose, an exceptionally creative blend from Fournarakis Winery in Episkopi, Heraklion. This unique rosé masterfully unites two legendary Cretan red varieties, Kotsifali and Mandilari, with the rare addition of Razaki—adding a delightfully distinctive touch to the wine’s character.
Rehitis Rose pours a beautiful, bright pomegranate-pink hue. On the nose, it delivers an aromatic bouquet of wild strawberries, fresh cherries, and sweet red-currant notes. The true highlight of this wine unfolds on the palate: a lively, crisp, and beautifully integrated acidity that brings immense freshness, cutting perfectly through the wine's juicy fruit core. It concludes with a clean, uplifting, and mouth-watering finish.
Food Pairing: An ultimate gastronomic rosé. It beautifully complements shrimp pasta, traditional Greek summer dishes (like Briam or stuffed tomatoes), sushi, or light poultry.
Appearance: Clear, bright pink with brilliant diamond-like reflections.
Nose: Intense aromatics of fresh strawberries, raspberries, and subtle hint of white flower blossoms.
Palate & Acidity: Fleshy but crisp. The acidity is sharp and revitalizing, providing a solid structural backbone that balances the rich fruit flavors and ensures a lasting, clean, and refreshing aftertaste.
Serving Temperature: Best enjoyed well-chilled at 8–10°C.
