Kamanterena - Xynisteri / Semillon White

The blend of the local Xynisteri grape with the French Semillon grape variety gives us pale green wines, with predominant citrus fruit aromatic character, with the presence of green apple, pear and honey aromas. Intense lively tastes with just enough acidity and alcohol to give a well balanced wine.
