Gymni Vasilisa Naked Queen, Pieria Erateini Winery

Naked Queen—also known as Gymni Vasilisa—is a distinctive white wine from Pieria Eratini Winery, situated in the Pieria region of northern Greece near Mount Olympus. This wine is a blend of 80% Assyrtiko and 20% Chardonnay, sourced from organically farmed vineyards. The Assyrtiko component is matured for 9 months in acacia barrels, while the Chardonnay spends 5 months in oak barrels, contributing to its complex flavor profile.

Brilliant golden color. Pronounced notes of citrus fruits, subtle hints of honey, and buttery nuances. Rich and mineral with a refreshing acidity and a slight salinity on the finish. Naked Queen pairs well with grilled or boiled fish, fried cod, roasted pork dishes with lemon sauce, risottos, rich green salads, and aged Gruyère cheese.
