A wine with pale rose colour and a steely mouth, characteristic of the firmness of its origin. Fruity aromas of several types of wild berries and citrus zest are perfectly balanced with a sense of chalkiness and notes of winter flowers. The mouth is long with vibrant acidity underlined by notes of minerality and an intense fruity aftertaste.
Pair with shellfish, grilled fish like red mullet and other seafood dishes. Serve at 10-12°C.

The highest mountain that dominates this place, Kedros, may be bare of trees, but its water springs favor a multitude of crops. Gerakari’s trademark are the cherries, which are produced by thousands of cherry trees, however all kinds of other fruits are also cultivated. For nature lovers, this place is a paradise, either to walk the rugged paths of Kedros and be enchanted by its waterfalls or to admire the rare tulips of the species Tulipa Doerfleri in the unique plateau of Gious. Of great interest are also the Byzantine churches, such as Agios Ioannis in Fotis and that of Agios Ioannis and Agia Anna in the deserted settlement of Gurgouthi.
