SKU: EL2070

Armyra 2024 from Domain Skouras captures the essence of Peloponnese terroir through a refined blend of 95% Chardonnay and 5% Malagousia. This Protected Geographical Indication dry white wine combines traditional winemaking with French oak influence, creating layers of tropical fruit, stone fruit, and subtle oak complexity. Sourced from mature vineyards in Corinthia and Argolida at 60 meters altitude, the wine reflects the character of sandy soils and meticulous viticultural practices.

Wine Profile

  • PGI Peloponnese designation with 95% Chardonnay from 32-year-old vines and 5% Malagousia from 18-year-old vines
  • Split fermentation: 70% in stainless steel, 30% in new 225-liter French oak barriques for six months
  • Expressive nose with ripe peach, pineapple, hints of lemon, and nuanced butter and caramel notes from oak aging
  • Green-yellow hue with greenish highlights, reflecting freshness and varietal character
  • Rich, round palate with refreshing acidity, balanced structure, and a long, evolving finish
  • Full malolactic fermentation in barriques with regular batonnage for textural complexity
  • 13% alcohol, 5.8 g/l total acidity, pH 3.4, sealed with Stelvin closure for optimal preservation

Winemaking Details

The Chardonnay undergoes six hours of skin contact at 14°C before alcoholic fermentation at 16°C. Thirty percent ferments in new French oak barriques where it completes malolactic fermentation and ages sur lie for six months with regular batonnage. The Malagousia receives 24 hours of skin contact at 10°C, ferments at 16°C in stainless steel, and ages sur lie for six months with batonnage. Harvested in mid-to-late August from vineyards yielding 55.10 hl/ha, the wine showcases the maritime influence suggested by its name while maintaining bright acidity and fruit purity.

The sandy soils of Corinthia and Argolida contribute to the wine's mineral backbone and elegant structure. This vintage displays a harmonious balance between fruit expression and oak integration, with aromas of butter, bread, and caramel complementing the primary tropical and stone fruit notes. The peppery finish adds further dimension to this compelling white blend.
