Wine Advocate, 

"The 2021 Naked Truth Savatiano is made with wild fermentation and skin contact for 22 days. It had partial malolactic fermentation for three months. It is dry, unoaked and comes in with 12.1% alcohol. This is sourced from 55- to 60-year-old bush vines. A very different wine than the "regular" Savatiano also reviewed, this features tension and transparency, emphasizing its structure and that skin contact more than the fruit. There's a little tannic bite, but this is well balanced. It's a close call on which I liked better, and that answer might depend on how you use it. This could do better with certain food pairings. In any event, reasonable minds might differ. One thing, clearly, is that this is less of a straight-ahead wine, perhaps thanks to that skin contact. You have to like the difference. I liked them both."  

Winemaker Notes: 

"Bright gold color.  A complex aromatic character. Fragrant, with peach skin, honey and floral notes.  Full-bodied balanced by the acidity, complex flavor palette similar to the aromatic profile with an unexpected long aftertaste." 

Alcohol: 12%
