HISTORY
This wine is named after the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite, and the tiny Greek ancient island (circa 1,050 BC) in the Mediterranean Sea, IOS, known as a party island. Ios is one of the most beautiful islands of the Cyclades, like    a flower, as its name “Ion” denotes. According to the ancient tradition, IOS is believed to be the homeland of Homer’s mother, while it is speculated that the great poet died and was buried here.

WINEMAKING
Our winemaking is cutting edge, clean and very green. We hand pick and hand- sort the clusters, de-stem the berries without crushing, mechanically shake out the small shot berries and then hand-sort again to remove anything that isn’t perfect. Good fermentation management helps produces wine that is stabile and clean. Little sulfite was necessary so when the wine is consumed the sulfite level is well below human threshold – no headaches and no allergic reactions.

THE EXPERIENCE
This rosé is fresh and delicious like a Pinot Noir. It is crisp and lingering like a Sauvignon Blanc. You’ll love it with almost any food and anytime of the year. The wine is made cleanly from triple hand sorted fruit. Extremely low sulfite assures no allergic reactions. Made using organic production methods. Simply delicious! Hand-picked and triple sorted grapes. Open topped tank fermented in small lots. Gently low pressure pressed.
