Wine Ingredients
Method
Wine Making Process
Harvesting
Select ripe Limniona grapes from the vineyards in Tirnavos, Thessaly. Ensure that the grapes are free from any rot or damage.
Crushing
Crush the harvested grapes to extract the juice. This can be done by hand or using a grape crusher.
Fermentation
Transfer the grape juice into a fermentation vessel. Add the yeast and sulfites to the juice, and stir well. Allow the mixture to ferment at a controlled temperature for about 10-14 days.
Pressing
After fermentation, press the mixture to separate the liquid wine from the grape skins. Collect the wine in a clean container.
Clarification
Allow the wine to settle for a few days. You may use fining agents if desired to help clarify the wine.
Aging
Let the wine age for at least 6 months before tasting to develop its flavors.
