The recipe for success
The recipe for success
Retsina Malamatina is produced from the exclusive Greek grape varieties, Savatiano and Roditis. The winemaking is carried out by the white winemaking process, the controlled temperature and choosing exclusively the “foam” of the must (the prorogos). As a result, the specific characteristics in color, aroma, taste and quality are achieved. The quality of Retsina Malamatina is also ensured by the state-of-the-art facilities of its wineries, which operate with the most modern automated mechanical equipment.
The addition of a small amount of pine resin during brewing gives the characteristic flavour of retsina, releasing at the same time the fruity aromas of the varieties. If the beneficial properties of resin, which have been well known since antiquity, are added to these characteristics, this will result in a unique wine of an absolute Greek origin.
Wine type: Table dry resinated white wine (RETSINA: name by tradition)
Alcoholic grade: 11% Vol
Acidity: 4.2 gr/lt in tartaric acid
Volatile acidity:< 0.45 gr/lt in acetic acid
Free SO2 >: 15 and < 35 mgr/lt
Total SO2:< 180 mgr/lt
Potassium sorbate:< 200 mgr/lt
Sugars:< 4 gr/lt
Density: 0.9930 gr/ml at 20o C
