Nemea

Nemea is the most important wine region on the Peloponnese peninsula, just an hour from Athens. The mountains and valleys surrounding the small village of Nemea have been producing wine for centuries, mostly from the native Agiorgitiko grape. Winemaking in this region dates back to at least the 5th Century BC. The last twenty years have seen a huge renaissance in Greek wine production, which is now made in a much more modern style (no longer using pine resin as a preservative) using the most technologically advanced equipment available.

  • Gaia-Agiorgitiko

    Gaia Agiorgitiko 2021

    Agiorgitiko (pronounced Ah-yor-YEE-te-ko) is a fragrant red wine grape native to Greece’s Peloponnese peninsula. The vineyards located near Koutsi are known for their chalky soils and good drainage. The cool temperatures, ideal sun exposure and steep inclination combine to produce lower yields than other parts of Nemea, but with excellent concentration of flavour.

  • Gaia Assyrtiko Thalassitis 2022

    This unique wine is produced on the island of Santorini. The vines are planted on a 15-degree slope facing East and Southeast on transferred pumice stone soil. The wine is made from the Assyrtiko grape and is light and aromatic. Only free run must is used, which is then fermented for approximately days at 15C. The resulting wine is almost white in color, bone-dry, with strong character, eliciting considerable structure, with crisp acidity, distinctive minerality and delicate honeysuckle aromas.
