Nemea Agiorgitiko Gaia Estate Red 750ml
Reference : 30293525
At the top of the steep Southwestern slopes of Koutsi, we cultivate our Agiorgitiko vines with an eye towards the creation of a red wine of an exceptional personality and a great aging potential, aiming to take all the compounds needed in a really small number of grapes.The winemaking is done in such a way that the already dense grape can be expressed in wine in the most absolute and complete way. The very long extraction after fermentation is the key point of the first phase of the vinification. Afterwards, the new wine will mature for at least of 12 months in new 225 liter French oak casks. The origin of the forest and the degree of burning, the way of cutting the used wood and every small detail, has been examined and chosen so we eventually get a wine with a high complex personality.
