Description

Crete, Greece 

Zidianakis Solidus is a beautiful organic Greek white wine of the indigenous varietal Vidiano. Zidianakis Garage Winery is a small state-of-the-art winemaking establishment, working mainly with indigenous white and red grape varieties. It is located in the village of Agies Paraskies Pedias, 20 km southeast of Heraklion, Crete. The owners apply the Integrated Management method in all phases of viticulture activity, which involves every environmentally friendly practice. Focusing on the minimal use of chemicals and the application of controlled methods, such as green harvesting and suited pruning, aiming to improve the raw material quality and not simply to increase the production volume. The goal is to make a fine wine, inextricably linked to the land and our zest, for people of refined taste. 

Zidianakis Solidus is a dry white wine from the Cretan variety Vidiano. Vidiano, which until a few years ago was nearing extinction, is now considered one of the signature varieties of the Cretan vineyard. It offers us complex aromas of ripe peach, apricot, bergamot, citrus blossoms and a mild sense of minerality, i.e. a slightly salty sensation with hints of astringency. 

The name Solidus comes from the gold coin established by the early Byzantine emperors and was a constant reference point for its great and lasting value; Solidus wine represents for us this constant value. 

Enjoy Zidianakis Solidus as a refreshing aperitif wine and with grilled salmon, grilled octopus, roasted chicken and summer salads.
