The estate now farms a total of 25ha organically with a strong focus on Vidiano grown on Crete's abundant limestone. Although famous for the single-vineyard, barrel-fermented Aspros Lagos, this steel-fermented wine is a brilliant introduction to the variety. Fleshy and bold with some of the richness and decadence of Viognier, with attractive flavours of fresh peach, melon and apricot, but the palate is a completely different game: alert, spicy, structured by notable acidity and with real drive and concentration through to the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eProduct size: 750ml \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elevage Wine Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55700155105585,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/0441\/0666\/files\/Douloufakis_Winery_Vidiano_Crete_Greece_2024.jpg?v=1760472439","url":"https:\/\/merchantofwine.com\/products\/douloufakis-vidiano-crete-greece-2025","provider":"Merchant of Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
