The wine region of Evia
Greek PGI on the island of Euboea (Greece's 2nd largest, facing Athens), Mediterranean climate freshened by Aegean breezes. Savatiano dominates (~80% of plantings): dry and light with citrus, green apple, Mediterranean herbs and a honeyed touch, fresh acidity, surprising ageing potential. Assyrtiko for tension, Malagousia for florals, Athiri in whites. Vradiano is the native red: fruity and spiced, complemented by Agiorgitiko and Cabernet.
The wine region of Continental Greece
Vast region of central Greece (Attica, Boeotia, Euboea, Phocis. ), ~1/3 of national output.
The word of the wine: Extraction
All the methods (pumping over, punching down) that allow the colour and tannins to be extracted from the grape skin during maceration, before fermentation begins. It is also possible to macerate after fermentation, but gently, so as not to extract the tannins from the seeds, which are greener. Because of its solvent power, alcohol favours extraction.
