Haritatos - Hariton 2025
Ask Leni Candan DipWSET, founder of Pale Ruby Wine and Greek wine specialist
Kefalonia’s answer to mineral whites: rare indigenous Vostilidi grape delivering citrus, freshness and a distinctly saline island character.
The Haritatos family has been growing grapes in Kefalonia since 1863, working with indigenous varieties like Vostilidi, Mavrodaphne and Muscat to produce small quantities of expressive wines shaped by the island’s terroir. Guided by a philosophy of minimal intervention, the estate promotes a diverse ecosystem of orchards, olive groves, herbs, and grazing animals that support a rich natural balance for the vines.
Hariton 2023 is made from 100% indigenous Vostilidi grown in Kefalonia. It shows lifted aromas of grapefruit, bergamot, white peach, and honeysuckle, with a vibrant expression of the variety.
High natural acidity is balanced by a rich, creamy mouthfeel, leading to a striking combination of freshness and a long, saline mineral finish.
It pairs beautifully with fried calamari, grilled fish, lemon roast chicken, pasta dishes, and fresh summer salads.
