SAMOS WHITE WINE DOUX 15%VOL 750ml

Belonging to the category of Vins de Liqueurs, this is the most popular wine from Samos, ranking as the No. 1 selling sweet wine in Greece and exported all over the world. It comes from semi-mountainous and mountainous terraces of the island. It has a light golden color, and its nose is dominated by aromas of apricot jam and ripe melon. Its distinctly fruity taste reveals notes of white-fleshed summer fruits. Ideally served at 8-10°C.

Organoleptic Characteristics:

Both its appearance and aroma are highly attractive, with a light golden hue. The nose is dominated by aromas of apricot jam and ripe melon, which express the fresh character of the Muscat grape while maintaining its primary aromas. The initial taste on the palate is explosive, with a fruity flavor that brings to mind white-fleshed summer fruits, while hints of butter caramel and subtle floral touches add depth.

Pairings:

This wine pairs beautifully with light and pale-colored desserts such as apple pie, lemon tart, and fruit tarts, as well as richer, creamy desserts. It can also be served before a meal as an aperitif or during quiet afternoon moments, accompanied by fruits, cheeses, and nuts. It is the perfect match for ripe melon, while desserts, cheeses, fresh or dried fruits all adore the company of Samos Vin Doux. It is also used in pastry-making to create flavorful syrups that add a unique touch to sweet creations. In cooking, it enhances aromatic complexity and “binds” sweet and sour sauces, or adds a subtle sweetness to poultry dishes, Asian or Italian cuisine, and other inspired dishes.
