Samos Nectar is a sweet wine produced by the Samos Cooperative Winery in the Greek island of Samos. The wine is made from the Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains grape variety, grown in the island's mountainous vineyards, which benefit from the cool sea breeze and the abundant sunshine. The grapes are handpicked and carefully selected to ensure the highest quality. The winemaking process involves a slow fermentation at low temperatures, which preserves the natural sweetness and aromas of the grapes. The resulting wine is a luscious and aromatic dessert wine, with notes of honey, apricot, and citrus, and a long, smooth finish. Samos Nectar is a perfect match for fruit-based desserts, blue cheese, or foie gras.
