Amalia Vintage 2015, Tselepos Winery

Date Tasted: 12/2020

Amalia Vintage is a premium sparkling wine closer to Champagne than any. It is produced only in years that the conditions are ideal and the grapes are perfect. The ‘traditional method’, which requires the second fermentation in the bottle, is applied to this one as in the other sparkling wine of Tselepos winery. And for extra complexity, texture and ageing potential, the wine remains up to 2 years with its fine lees. 

Appearance: The shiny pale gold colour helps observe the bubbles that are thin with intensity and durability. 

Nose: Expressive aromas with a complex yet elegant character full of red rose, citrus fruits, pear and deep layers of pastry and brioche notes. 

Palate: Delicate mousse, velvety and refreshing with engaging flavours of peach and jasmine followed by honey and biscuit notes on a long and delicious aftertaste. 

It is an excellent choice as an aperitif for celebrations or just for self-treatment.

Drink or Hold: Delicious now or in the next 10 years. 

Food Pairing: For a mouthwatering experience, pair it with parmesan cheese and toasted bread.
