Rodani - Hatziioannou Estate 750ml
Rodani by Hatziioannou Estate is more than just a wine—it is a pure expression of Samos’s unique terroir and the Hatziioannou family’s deep-rooted winemaking tradition. Crafted from proprietary, organically cultivated vineyards located on the arid eastern slopes of the island, this wine tells a story of resilience, heritage, and authenticity. The vineyards thrive in exceptionally dry conditions, which not only intensify the concentration of the grapes but also reflect the remarkable adaptability of the Samos landscape.
Rodani is vinified with a natural, wild fermentation process, allowing indigenous yeasts to shape the wine’s character without unnecessary intervention. This “young, wild-fermented Samos” captures both the raw beauty of its origin and the refined craftsmanship of six generations of family expertise. Twice awarded in 2021—at prestigious international wine contests in Italy and Belgium—Rodani has already gained recognition as an outstanding ambassador of Greek viticulture.
In the glass, Rodani reveals a brilliant golden hue with inviting aromatics of citrus zest, orange peel, and hints of bergamot. On the palate, it strikes a perfect balance between freshness and minerality, with delicate saline undertones that reflect the island’s coastal influence. Its lively acidity complements a gentle texture, leading to a clean, elegant finish that lingers with subtle complexity.
Perfect for celebrating “very special moments,” Rodani pairs beautifully with Mediterranean-inspired cuisine. Enjoy it alongside grilled prawns with lemon, seafood pasta, fresh salads, or creamy cheeses. Its versatility also makes it a sophisticated choice for intimate dinners, festive gatherings, or simply as a thoughtful gift for wine lovers.
Every sip of Rodani embodies the essence of Samos—sun-soaked vineyards, careful stewardship of the land, and a legacy of passion carried forward by the Hatziioannou family. This bottle is not just wine; it’s a journey into the heart of the Aegean, offering a taste of heritage, authenticity, and award-winning excellence.
