Metic was the term used in Ancient Greece for a foreigner living in Athens that contributed to the cultural and economic life but did not have the same rights as a true citizen. This wine was inspired by famous song ‘Le M t queâ€?by Georges Moustaki and led Luca to call this wine Metic. Winemaker Luca Hodgkinson is a French/English/Spanish expat who sources grapes from sustainable and organic vineyards. This sustainable vineyard is currently in conversion to becoming organically certified and very little manipulation takes place in the winery; wild yeasts are allowed to work their magic, the wine is not fined and limited sulphur is added.
