With this wine, we approach the largest appellation of Greece, Nemea (3000 ha), which is also the cradle of the ancient grape variety Agiorgitiko (St. George), also known as the “Blood of Hercules”, in reference to the mythology. Through an intense ruby color with violet hues, the first notes reveal a full-bodied wine with aromas of ripe red berries, cherries, chocolate and sweet spices. On the palate, it gains in nervousness and vivacity thanks to its controlled acidity and its marked tannins which open the way to a pleasantly persistent finish.
