This \u0026quot;resin wine\u0026quot; was already drunk in antiquity and was attributed with healing properties. \u0026quot;Retsina\u0026quot; (the Greek word for resin) is produced by adding pine resin from the Aleppo tree during the fermentation of the must, which dissolves in the developing alcohol. Retsina likely originated when the amphorae, sealed with wooden corks, in which the wine was stored, were smeared with resin. During transport, some of the resin dissolved into the wine due to shaking. It has a light straw-yellow color. On the palate, this wine exhibits a distinctive resinous flavor.","brand":"OIL \u0026 WINE PRODUCTIONS AGRICULTURAL COOPERATIVE OF PATRAS \"PATRAIKI 1918\"","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52694961783120,"sku":"V33450","price":4.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/patraiki-retsina-2x.webp?v=1783528621"},{"product_id":"mavrodaphne-de-patras","title":"Mavrodaphne de Patras","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eMavrodaphne de Patras\u003c\/strong\u003e from the Patraiki cooperative – founded in 1918 in the port city of Patras on the Peloponnese – is one of the great classics of Greek wine culture.
