Agiorgitiko
An extraordinary part of Greek wine history
[product_subtitle]
This wonderful obsessive wine is part of Greek wine history since this is the first premium wine created from the Agiorgitiko variety by wine wizard Christos Aivalis back in 2004 and many believe that this is the best wine in Nemea. The vintage of that year was really amazing and gave some of the best wines we have ever tasted. It comes from a 50 years old vineyard called Monopati with stony rugged soil which, every year, produces superb Agiorgitiko, way above anything you have tried until now. Vinification takes place strictly according to French standards and maturation lasts 16 months in French oak barrels. Monopati comes with precious deep purple color and fantastic subtle aromas of sour cherry, cherry, strawberry jam, raspberry and plum with background notes of violet, vanilla, cinnamon, caramel, and bitter chocolate. The body is rich with ripe tannins and medium acidity.

Agiorgitiko
One of the best Greek wines you will taste this year
[product_subtitle]
Τwo gods meet in this astonishing wine which is probably one of the best you will try this year. Syrah brings its satisfying acidity, impressive tannins and playful peppery persona while Agiorgitiko its elegance and fruity character. Both varieties are cultivated with a low yield approach which offers fantastic concentration. Grapes come from old vineyards, without irrigation or fertilization for many years, where vines are forced to search deeper, within the body of mother earth, for precious nutrients necessary for their well-being. While Syrah and Agiorgitiko are vinified separately they come together for 30 months in French oak barrels, while the final aging potential of this superb wine is almost 10 years. The nose is dynamic, full of red and black fruit such as ripe cherry, sour cherry, raspberry, bilberry and cassis jam. Discover the tones of rare herbs: lavender, violet, marjoram, and eucalyptus that will take you further into the magic of this mythical wine.

In order to bring out the best of Agiorgitiko he decided he had to select only the best vineyards in Nemea and this is exactly what he did. With very special care during the process of vinification the precious fruit remains in French oak barrels for 12 months and gains finesses and complexity. Apocalypsis 2014 is an extraordinary Nemea with perfect balance between fruit and spice, a very fulfilling original expression of what it is supposed to be.
