2023 Papras Bio Wines Tyrnavos Melanthia Ancestral Method Semi-Sparkling Rose

Melanthia 2023 pops with carefree energy straight from Tyrnavos’s breezy plains. Organically farmed Muscat Hamburg is harvested at dawn, pressed gently, and bottled mid-ferment, sealing natural bubbles in the ancestral method. No fining, filtering, or added sulfur—just vivid strawberry, rose-petal charm, and a whisper of Mediterranean herbs gliding over a cool limestone backbone. Gentle fizz keeps the palate lively while a feather-light grip adds satisfying texture. Chill well, pop the crown cap, and let this playful rosé turn ordinary moments into spontaneous celebrations.

Nose: Fresh strawberry, pink rose, and grapefruit zest swirl with a hint of wild thyme.

Palate: Juicy red-berry crunch meets candied citrus and soft florals, carried by delicate mousse and bright acidity.

Finish: Dry, brisk, and lightly saline, leaving echoes of pomegranate and crushed stone.

Pairs effortlessly with mezze spreads, light grills, and soft cheeses; try grilled halloumi drizzled in honey, shrimp saganaki, or a watermelon-feta salad to let the wine’s sparkle and floral fruit brighten every bite.
