The winery located in Svoronata, southwest of the island of Kefalonia, produces splendid natural wines from terraced vineyards situated about 700 m above sea level. The altitude and the beneficial effect of the sea breeze produce very aromatic wines, with a surprising freshness and minerality with a Mediterranean character. The Sarris Ungrafted Vines of Robola of Kefalonia Panochori is a natural white wine produced with Robola grapes, a variety widespread in Italy, Slovenia and other Greek islands and recognized worldwide as one of the most prized white varieties. The grapes come from a low-yield vineyard, planted in 1981 and located in the village of Panochori. Here the soil is calcareous, with gravel and well-drained, and the vineyards enjoy the sea breeze from the coast. The wine shows a clear, bright yellow color. The aromatic profile is intense, elegant and fresh with delicate aromas, fruity hints of tropical fruit, lemon, grapefruit, peach and white flowers. The wine has excellent minerality, balanced acidity, a long aftertaste, and a slight sapidity. Perfect with fish, especially a typical island dish, cod fried in batter.
