Domaine Skouras, Zoe Rosé 2021

The color is bright, light cerise with pink hues. Vibrant and clear on the nose, with aromas of ripe cherries, raspberries, hints of flowers and rose petal notes. On the palate it has a medium body, moderately high acidity, and the slightest suggestion of very ripe tannins. Flavors are consistent with the aromas, with a light sensation of sweet grass and bubble gum. The finish is moderately long, with developing flavors that lead to complexity.

70/30 blend of Agiorgitiko and Moschofilero

Zoe, the Greek word for life, is a series of wines created to exemplify the terroir of its origins. When creating these wines, we focus on working with micro farmers that farm naturally and work with indigenous and cosmopolitan varieties for our blends. The wines are also expressions of the winemakers and we work with ultra-talented people that are skilled in the craft but also in tune and in touch with the ecosystems they work in and around.

This blend of several different vineyards planted at high elevation. The Agiorgitiko is planted on clay soils within the Nemea region while the Moscofilero comes from vineyards in the Mantineia region planted on sandy soils. Elevation allows for the grapes to mature slowly, developing complex flavor and natural high acidity.
