Frequently asked about Little Ark Rose
What does Little Ark Rose taste like?
Lantides describes a pale salmon colour with rich, elegant aromas of sweet quince, strawberries and cherries accompanied by hints of lime and tangerine peel, with white rose, hyacinth and primrose adding floral character. The mouth is rich and intense with a greasy, buttery texture and perfect balance, and toffee and jasmine remain in the long-lasting aftertaste.
What grape is Little Ark Rose made from?
It is 100 percent Moschofilero, the typical indigenous Peloponnesian variety, from the Skotini landscape in Argolida at 600 metres on reddish clay soil.
What food pairs with Little Ark Rose?
Lobster with butter, duck salad with orange and baklava all suit its buttery texture and long, jammy aftertaste.
Is Little Ark Rose the same wine as Mikri Kivotos Roze?
Yes. Lantides uses Little Ark on its English pages and Mikri Kivotos in Greek, so Greek retailers list this rose as Mikri Kivotos Roze.
