  • Boundary not captured yet (PGIs are not in the Eurac boundary data).
  • From the specification: Florina PGI, whole prefecture of Florina. Varieties may be used in any proportion (white list includes Xinomavro). Sweet wines need a minimum total strength of 15 % vol. The variety section also mentions a medium-sweet white semi-sparkling wine, but only dry and semi-dry semi-sparkling wines are described; semi-sparkling wines keep endogenous CO2 (traditional local technique). Sweetening is permitted for semi-dry, medium-sweet and sweet wines; wines may be made in wineries in the prefecture or neighbouring prefectures.
