Oenops Vidiano is an exceptional white wine that showcases the unique characteristics of the Vidiano grape, an indigenous variety from Crete, Greece. Known for its aromatic complexity and refreshing acidity, this wine features vibrant notes of citrus, stone fruits, and floral undertones, making it a delightful choice for those seeking a fresh and engaging white wine experience. Oenops Vidiano exemplifies the potential of this lesser-known grape, reflecting the terroir of its origins with elegance and finesse.

Oenops Winery is a relatively young and innovative producer located in the heart of the Greek wine landscape. Founded by winemaker Dimitris Koutouzis, Oenops is dedicated to reviving indigenous grape varieties and showcasing the diverse terroirs of Greece. The winery emphasizes sustainable farming practices and minimal intervention in the winemaking process, allowing the true essence of the grapes to shine through. With a commitment to quality and a passion for the rich heritage of Greek viticulture, Oenops has quickly gained recognition for its remarkable wines, including the Vidiano, which captures the spirit of the region and the unique character of its grapes.

The terroir of Crete plays a significant role in the expression of Oenops Vidiano. The vineyards are located at higher elevations, benefiting from cooler temperatures that help preserve the grapes’ natural acidity and aromatic intensity. The region’s diverse soils, including clay and limestone, contribute to the complexity and minerality of the wine. The Vidiano grapes are hand-harvested to ensure only the best fruit is selected for vinification. The wine undergoes fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by ageing on its lees, which enhances the texture and adds depth to the flavour profile, resulting in a wine that is both vibrant and rich.

Oenops Vidiano opens with an enticing bouquet of fresh citrus fruits, including lemon and grapefruit, complemented by notes of peach and apricot, along with subtle floral hints of jasmine and wild herbs. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and crisp, showcasing flavors of ripe stone fruits and zesty acidity that creates a refreshing and lively mouthfeel. The wine has a lovely minerality that adds to its complexity, leading to a long, satisfying finish with lingering notes of citrus and a touch of spice.

Food pairing suggestions: Grilled seafood, fresh salads, and creamy pasta.
