Description

Hemina is the Burgundian style white wine of our winery that is composed of grape varieties according to the conditions of each vintage. The wine of the recent vintage is based on Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc that ensure the full body and the creamy structure, ornamented with the calcareous minerality and the delicate notes from the aging in used barrels and enriched by the lively fruitiness of Viognier and the vivid acidity of Sauvignon blanc. It is a complex and rich wine that can even develop with bottle ageing.
