The white grape variety originates from Greece. Synonyms are Artemisi, Artemissi, Klossaria, Monembasia, Monemvassia, Monembasitiko, Monemvassiatiko, Monemvassitiko, Monobasia, Monovassia and Parghino.It is one of the numerous mostly unrelated varieties with name part Malvasia (see there). It is believed that the variety (among many others) was used for the production of the famous Malvasia wines, which were shipped or exported from the historic Greek port of Monemvasia (Laconia) as early as the 13th century. The variety's ancestry is unknown; according to DNA analyses carried out in 2000, there is no relationship with any of the many other Malvasia varieties.

Drink now, but will keep

Moraitis Malvasia is rich and full bodied with a light sweetness, enticing wine drinkers with a usually dryer palate. The mesmerizing dark bronze colour with golden hues, hints at the long, delicate ageing in oak, imparting colour into the wine. Aromas of dried apricots, golden raisins, and honey glide beautifully and gradually towards more concentrated notes of caramel and dried nuts. The wine keeps a characteristic freshness of the Monemvasia variety, and the coastal attributes inherent to the vine and the terroir itself. An incredibly enticing wine that will make you want to finish the bottle!
