Medium- to full-bodied, refreshing, and vigorous acidity, with the aromas on the mouth following those of the nose. Elegant, balanced and with a long finish.

Vineyard Information

Skouras’ Moscofilero comes from the Mantinia region within Peloponnese, a high elevation valley where the vineyards are planted on alluvial soils. Here, cooler climate allows for the grapes to mature slowly, developing complex aromatics and high acidity.
