Retsina is a product unique to the Greek vineyards. Greece is the only country permitted to produce traditional Retsina wine under law. It is a dry, slightly piquant wine, which owes its characteristic flavor to the addition of a few pieces of pine resin to the must before or during fermentation. These, along with the lees, are removed during the first racking.
This un-oaked dry white has a slightly tangy flavor with the traditional characteristic hint of pine resin. This characteristic is due to the addition of a few pieces of pine resin to the must during fermentation.
