Efronsini Winery Crete Kleftis (The Wine Thief) Dry White Crete Greece 2024

"Our short history started in 1999 when we decided, with the invaluable assistance of experienced and specialised scientists (agriculturalists, chemists, biologists, viniculturists etc) to cultivate organically not only exquisite local varieties but also others, internationally recognized. We cultivate Liatiko, Kotsifali, Mandilari, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah for red wines and for white wines we cultivate Vidiano, Malvazia, Assyrtiko, Thrapsathiri and Chardonnay. Despite the fact that we are entrepreneurs in the production and trading of wine, we have taken part in both Greek and International Exhibitions and Competitions and we are proud of the distinctions we were awarded. We would be pleased and honoured if you visited our facilities and vineyards, first-hand experience the procedures of wine production, be informed of our history and at the same time enjoy as many glasses of wine as you wish. Because, Crete is better noted for its hospitality than its wines." - Efrosini Winery

Efrosini Winery's "Kleftis" (The Wine Thief) is a Cretan dry white wine blending 60% Assyrtiko and 40% Malvasia Candia. This unoaked, aromatic wine features notes of chamomile, jasmine, and citrus rind, balanced by high acidity and mineral intensity.
