Why this wine
Agiorgitiko makes a rounder, fruitier rose than Xinomavro. Fresh and strawberry-scented without being sweet. The easiest of the Greek roses here.
Our advantages:
Description
How it tastes
Vivid and aromatic, hovering between rose petal florals and pomegranate and strawberry fruit. Bright, with lifted acidity.
The producer
Agiorgitiko from the Asprokambos area of Nemea, made in a fresher register than the estate's reds. Gaia work from two wineries — Nemea in the Peloponnese and Santorini — and were central to Greek wine's modern revival.
Food and drinking
Good with seafood, salads and poultry & pork. Ready now, and will hold for a few years yet. Serve at 8–10°C.
