Schioppettino - Limnio 2018, Domaine Hatzimichalis

Schioppettino - Limnio 2018, Domaine Hatzimichalis

Date Tasted: 7/2021

The scarce Schioppettino variety shares equal parts with the ancient Limnio variety, and the result is exciting. 

Appearance: The colour is pale ruby.

Nose: A modern expression. Fresh and fruity. Mostly red fruits with some herbaceous and earthy notes. 

Palate: Refreshing and smooth. Best enjoyed at a cool temperature. The acidity is high, and the tannins are very soft. Medium body and a medium aftertaste. 

Drink: It is just perfect. 

Food Pairing: Stuffed zucchinis with rice, spices and herbs.
