This local variety is cultivated in the Elios area of ​​South Kefallinia. It originates from Zakynthos and was settled in the area by monks who came to the area 400 years ago.
The plateau of Elios-Pronnon has a south-western exposure of loamy clayey soil and is in direct influence with the mountain range of Ainos which forms an excellent condition for the development of this variety. The harvest of the Zakynthos variety takes place in the second fortnight of August. The wine produced is characterized by aromas of ripe peaches with a rich body and balanced acidity. The fermentation and maturation takes place in stainless steel tanks with a stay in fine mud for about 7 months without the addition of preservatives. Bottling without filtering.
