👁 In the Glass:
Pale straw with green highlights—clean and glistening.
👃 On the Nose:
Expressive and inviting, with aromas of apricot, peach, and pineapple. Subtle herbal notes and a citrus lift bring complexity and Mediterranean charm.
👅 On the Palate:
Dry, fresh, and finely textured. Juicy apricot and lemon zest are layered over a light saline edge and mouth-watering acidity. The low alcohol enhances its vibrant tension and mineral-driven character.

A superb match for grilled sea bream, stuffed vine leaves, or fresh herbed salads. Also excellent with shrimp saganaki or Cretan cheeses.

Best enjoyed young for its brightness, but can evolve over 3–4 years, gaining subtle depth and savoury nuances.

Lyrarakis’ “Queen” Vidiano is a true gem of Crete—pure, vibrant, and full of island spirit. A wine that captures Greece’s native elegance with every refreshing sip.
