The wine region of Nemea
Flagship Peloponnese appellation (north-east) and Greece's largest red PDO: exclusive signature Agiorgitiko in red (Saint George grape) — deep ruby with concentrated signature aromas of cherry, raspberry, pomegranate, plum and a cassis touch, spicy profile, moderate acidity and generous fruit. Versatile style — light, easy reds to drink young, complex age-worthy reds, sometimes sweet. PDO Nemea, varied altitude, signature diurnal swings, late-ripening grape.
The wine region of Peloponnesos
Southern Greece, the country's 2nd region by volume, high-altitude vineyards (200-900 m). Signature Agiorgitiko at Nemea ("Hercules' Blood"): deep ruby reds with signature notes of black cherry, plum, blackberry, sweet spices and a balsamic touch, supple tannins and a velvety palate — fleshy and accessible. At Mantinia (600 m), pink-skinned Moschofilero gives aromatic whites (rose, citrus, white flowers). Sweet fortified Mavrodaphne, fresh Roditis.
The word of the wine: Côte des Bar
This is the name given to the vineyards of the Aube, which are closer to Burgundy, and some of the wines produced here bear witness to this proximity. The pinot noir dominates, the meunier is practically absent. Two crus have become references: Riceys, where a rosé without bubbles is also produced, and Montgueux near Troyes, renowned for its Chardonnay.
