After we harvest the grapes from vineyards under our management, we dry the grapes on elevated drying beds, and partial shading to achieve even drying and avoiding mould. We press the grapes after two weeks and ferment in stainless steel tanks on naturally present yeast. The wine then aged for 11 years in used oak barrels in our cellar, before bottling it.<\/p>\n<p>Tasting notes: A light amber coloured wine, with complex notes of dried fruits, honey, orange peel and balanced acidity to keep its freshness.<\/p>\n<p>Food pairing: Enjoy on its own or with dessert.<\/p>\n<p><a itemprop=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/zambartaswineries.com\/our-wines\/melusine-commandaria\/\" target=\"_self\"  class=\"mkdf-btn mkdf-btn-small mkdf-btn-solid\"  >\n    <span class=\"mkdf-btn-text\">DISCOVER MORE<\/span>\n    <i class=\"mkdf-icon-font-awesome  \" ><\/i><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"mkdf-progress-bar  mkdf-pb-percent-hidden\">\n\t<p class=\"mkdf-pb-title-holder\" style=\"color: #0c0c0c\">\n\t\t<span class=\"mkdf-pb-title\">Body<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"mkdf-pb-percent\">0<\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-pb-content-holder\" style=\"background-color: rgba(181,181,181,0.54)\">\n\t\t<div data-percentage=80 class=\"mkdf-pb-content\" style=\"background-color: #b5a46d\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"mkdf-progress-bar  mkdf-pb-percent-hidden\">\n\t<p class=\"mkdf-pb-title-holder\" style=\"color: #0c0c0c\">\n\t\t<span class=\"mkdf-pb-title\">Acid<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"mkdf-pb-percent\">0<\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-pb-content-holder\" style=\"background-color: rgba(181,181,181,0.54)\">\n\t\t<div data-percentage=20 class=\"mkdf-pb-content\" style=\"background-color: #b5a46d\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"mkdf-progress-bar  mkdf-pb-percent-hidden\">\n\t<p class=\"mkdf-pb-title-holder\" style=\"color: #0c0c0c\">\n\t\t<span class=\"mkdf-pb-title\">Tannin<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"mkdf-pb-percent\">0<\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-pb-content-holder\" style=\"background-color: rgba(181,164,109,0.54)\">\n\t\t<div data-percentage=10 class=\"mkdf-pb-content\" style=\"background-color: #b5a46d\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"mkdf-progress-bar  mkdf-pb-percent-hidden\">\n\t<p class=\"mkdf-pb-title-holder\" style=\"color: #0c0c0c\">\n\t\t<span class=\"mkdf-pb-title\">Oak<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"mkdf-pb-percent\">0<\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"mkdf-pb-content-holder\" style=\"background-color: rgba(181,164,109,0.54)\">\n\t\t<div data-percentage=30 class=\"mkdf-pb-content\" style=\"background-color: #b5a46d\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Commandaria, Melusine, is our way of honouring one of Cyprus\u2019 most historic wines while showing it at its very best.
