Theodora Rouvali, the second generation of the Rouvali winery, has taken the reins and creates wonderful wines with a focus on showcasing the terroir of Aigialeia. Tsigelo is known as the highest quality clone of Mavrodafni, and here we have an excellent dry expression of the variety from vineyards at an altitude of 650 meters. The wine, which aged for several months in handmade clay amphorae, is distinguished by its freshness, purity of fruit, and elegant tannins. It is a red wine that can comfortably accompany fish dishes.

Its color is medium violet. The expressive aromas of red fruits such as cherry and bramble, combined with notes of bay leaves, herbs, and chocolate, create a multi-dimensional aromatic profile. Its taste is velvety with refreshing acidity, fruit intensity, and a lasting aftertaste.

- Producer's Description
- Leaving the plain for the mountainous slopes of Aigialeia, the quality and indigenous Tsigelo radically rejuvenates and abandons its sweet prospect to offer here an irresistible dry wine with earthy and rich elegance, which immediately gained international recognition. Made with gentle interventions, the deep red Tsigelo ages in handmade clay amphorae softening its tannins, and evolves in the bottle unfiltered, capturing aromas of rosemary, bay leaves, and eucalyptus.
