Tasting Note
Two traditional Greek varieties combine to give an elegant wine: the Moschofilero contributes a vibrant, floral flavour while the Roditis provides a smooth lemony character.
Producer Note
One of the pioneers of the modern Greek wine revolution Gaia Estate was established in 1994 by Greek winemakers Leon Karatsalos and Yiannis Paraskevopoulos. Operating two different wineries they make cutting edge wines in both Nemea and Santorini. Gaia's main aim is to present the potential of the indigenous Greek grape varieties to wine enthusiasts worldwide.
