Kontozisis Drop By Drop The Jar Fills Up

Kontozisis Drop By Drop The Jar Fills Up is a delightfully refreshing, accessible natural white wine that belongs to the series of affordable, everyday-style wines named after local folk phrases by Kontozisis Organic Vineyards. Produced by Andreas Kontozisis and Aphrodite Tousia in Karditsa, Thessaly, within the foothills of Mount Agrafa, this wine reflects the producer's long-term commitment to low-intervention, certified organic viticulture.

The winemaking approach relies on patience and minimal manipulation. It begins with a pre-fermentation cold extraction at 7 to 10 degrees Celsius, followed by no mechanical pressing, using exclusively free-run juice. Fermentation occurs spontaneously over 18 days with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks, where it is matured without undergoing malolactic fermentation. Bottled completely unfined and unfiltered with just a tiny sulfur addition, the wine reveals a clean, pure profile characterized by zesty citrus, white peach, green apple, and a distinct sea-spray salinity.
