Varietal: Agiorgitiko

All over Greece and the surrounding countries, the Agiorgitiko grape varietal is held in high regard. The reasons for this are many; not only does this grape varietal have a very high resistant to the soaring temperatures found around the Mediterranean, but it can also thrive in dry and arid land and produce flavorful grapes full of interesting characteristics. Agiorgitiko grapes are most commonly known for their strong fruity flavors, with plum and dark berries being the most common notes identified in the wines they produce. They are also known for their spicy and earthy qualities, and are often successfully blended with Cabernet Sauvignon to boost their often low acid and tannin content. Wineries generally aim for low yields of Agiorgitiko grapes, in order to concentrate their characteristics and make for better quality wine.

Country: Greece

It is almost impossible to understate the importance of local and regionally produced wines in Greek culture. Across the country, from the cities of the mainland to the villages, mountainous regions and islands, wine is produced using traditional methods and native grape varietals, and is drank in households and taverns, either accompanying the much loved local cuisine or alone as a refreshment under the blazing Mediterranean sunshine. For wine lovers around the world, Greece is known for producing several wines with something unique and interesting to offer, a refreshing change from the norm filled with surprises and complex, occasionally challenging or unusual flavors and aromas. Thanks to the vast range in terrain across the archipelago, Greek wine is as varied as it is delicious, meaning there is plenty to explore and enjoy from this fascinating and ancient country.
