Limniona Young Vineyards: The Cool Face of the Thessalian Land

At Ktima Zafeirakis, the love for Limniona is part of its identity. This variety, with its roots deeply rooted in the Thessalian land, offers every year unique grapes with expressiveness and complexity. The Young Vineyards label is the freshest, young approach to growing and winemaking Limniona for Ktima Zafeirakis - a lighter, delightfully vibrant version that expresses the fruit with an immediate, fruity character.

Limniona Young Vineyards comes from vines with an average age of 10 - 15 years, which give grapes with precision and purity. This wine is vinified with gentle maceration and minimal aging to bring out the vibrant fruity character of the varietal. The nose is dominated by red fruits, such as cherry and blackberry, with floral and subtle herbal notes. On the palate, it is elegant, with fresh acidity and soft tannins.

The flexibility of Limniona Young Vineyards is impressive. Due to its finesse and balance, it can accompany a multitude of dishes:

• Mediterranean recipes with tomatoes (e.g. eggplant imam, stuffed etc): the fruity acidity of the wine accentuates the sweetness of the tomatoes without masking it.

• White meat dishes such as chicken or pork with herbs and lemon - the soft tannins respect the simplicity of the flavours.

• Pies and appetizers with a summer character, such as spinach pie or dolmades - the freshness of the wine balances the oily notes.

• Grilled meats such as ribs, chicken, burgers - the tannins capture the protein of the meat creating a sense of fullness in the mouth.

If you are looking for a red wine that combines delicacy, authenticity and everyday enjoyment, Limniona Young Vineyards is the answer. It is the wine that bridges knowledge with emotion: made with respect for the variety and with the prospect of immediate consumption. Whether enjoyed alone or at the table with loved ones, it will enhance every moment with elegance and Thessalian freshness.
