Agiorgitiko is Greece's most-planted red, and Nemea its heartland. Softer and darker than Xinomavro, with real depth here.

Description
How it tastes
Sweet fruit over a rich, velvety texture with real depth — concentrated red and black fruit, vanilla, black pepper and violet.
The producer
Agiorgitiko is native to the Peloponnese, and this comes from a seven-hectare single estate vineyard at Koutsi in Nemea. Gaia was founded in 1994 by Leon Karatsalos and Yiannis Paraskevopoulos, among the pioneers of the modern Greek wine revival.
Food and drinking
Good with red meat and lamb. Ready now, and will hold for a few years yet.
