A sensory guide
How each of the five senses is engaged through the course of the experience.
- Sight
- Low bush vines, ochre soil, oak barrels stacked under vaulted ceilings.
- Sound
- Cicadas in the heat, the cork pulled from a cellar bottle, lunch conversation.
- Scent
- Fermenting must, sun-warmed earth, rosemary brushed at the cellar door.
- Taste
- Saline assyrtiko, structured agiorgitiko, a vin santo at the close of lunch.
- Touch
- Cold stone of the cellar wall against your palm after the heat of the vineyard.
