The wine region of Ilia
PGI (2004) of north-west Peloponnese around Olympia, fertile plains and hills from 10 to 700 m irrigated by the Alfios and Pinios rivers, humid Mediterranean climate. Roditis and Avgoustiatis are the autochthonous signatures — Roditis as a pale pink-tinged white with lively citrus notes, stone fruit and a floral hint. Mavrodaphne full-bodied and liqueur-like in reds. Refosco, Agiorgitiko and Merlot in fleshy reds with red fruits and spices.
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: Sorting
Action which consists in removing the bad grains, not ripe or affected by the rot. We often use vibrating sorting tables which, by shaking, make the impurities fall to the ground. In the case of sweet wines, we speak of harvesting by successive selections, in several passages, to select the very ripe grapes each time.
