Samos Grand Cru is a fortified sweet wine produced by the Samos Cooperative, located on the Greek island of Samos. The wine is made from the Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains grape variety, grown on the Islands vineyards that benefit from the island's unique microclimate. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected to ensure only the best fruit is used. The winemaking process involves a slow fermentation and aging in stainless steel tanks resulting in a fresh and complex wine with notes of honey, apricot, and citrus. Samos Grand Cru is a perfect dessert wine, pairing well with fruit-based desserts, blue cheese, or enjoyed on its own as a sweet treat.
