Plytó is an ancient variety for white wine making grown in the Peza wine region of Crete, and that was brought back from extinction by the Lyrarakis Domaine .
Low-yield farming and high vineyard elevation are two key factors in the renewed success of the grape. Plyto is lively, with a zippy and mouth-watering mix of grapefruit and mineral notes.
Plyto is typically vinified on its own, but has also been used in a blend with other indigenous white grapes of Crete ( Dafni, Vinala and Vidiano) to produce a distinctive rendition of the ancient sweet wine of Crete, Malvasia.
