About This Wine


Halara

Savatiano

We welcome you to the serene landscape of Greece with our Halara Savatiano. This delectable local wine boasts ripe fruit flavors amidst satin-like textures and enticing minerality. Though not as well known to the global market, this native grape is Greece’s most widely planted white variety. Likened to Chardonnay, this versatile white can showcase an impressive range of varietal flavors dependent on climate and winemaking practices. Our 2021 vintage offers a sample of this variety’s lush, textural styling as it whisks your palate away to the Aegean Sea. Having made wine for nearly 7,000 years, the Greeks have truly mastered the art of winemaking. We invite you to enjoy this bottle as the locals do: well chilled alongside a simple cheese board and fresh fruit as you take in every ounce of tranquility.

Wine Region


Greece

One of the most historic wine-producing countries, Greece is a cradle of modern wine culture. While today its wines do not enjoy the same reputation as some of its other European neighbors, Greece and its unique indigenous grape varieties are enjoying a Renaissance. White wine drinkers will love the floral Debina and peachy Malagousia from the cooler, wetter north of the country. Or head down to the sun-kissed Aegean islands for spellbinding Assyrtiko, with flavors ranging from passionfruit and mineral to oak and pineapple. For red wine lovers, southern Greece grows the herbaceous Agiorgitiko, while the sublime Xinomavro of the north—often referred to as "Greece's Barolo"—offers dark cherry and licorice notes.
