Discover the grape variety: Monemvasia

Recognized as being native to the Peloponnese in Greece, today very present in the Cyclades islands (Paros in particular and a little in Syros, Mykonos, Santorini, ...), in the island of Evia, ... . We can also meet it in Italy, in the United States, ... in France it is practically not known. It should not be confused with the multitude of white grape varieties belonging to the large Malvasia family. Indeed, DNA tests have never established any link of relationship. On the other hand, it is related to the Greek variety Athiri, which originated on the island of Santorini, and to the white Gouais.
