Top sparkling from the Greek vineyard that carries the extroversion of Moschofileros but also the complexity that the second fermentation in the bottle gives to the wines. Wonderful fruity and rose elements, lively acidity, length and bready notes make up a wonderful and irresistible ensemble with many accolades worldwide.

Dimitris Mansolas and Maria Tamiolaki, two excellent winemakers, created Hetero Wines in 2018 with the aim of producing ‘diverse’ wines from various regions of Greece. Here we have a rare combination of two great indigenous varieties, grown in the plain of Domokos and kneaded with native yeasts. The tannic character of Xinomavro is tamed with just 8% Assyrtiko, with the acidity of both varieties being at high levels, while at the same time the wine impresses with the intensity and freshness of the fruit.

Semeli is one of the most historic wineries of Nemea and the Grande Reserve is its most premium Agiorgitiko. Produced from the privately owned vines in Koutsi at an altitude of 650, it is aged for 18 months in new oak barrels and matures for at least 24 months in the bottle. A great aging Nemea that combines very nicely the ripe elements with the freshness of the fruit. The magnum bottle helps it develop more slowly over time, acquiring a particularly complex character.

The combination of possible red Syrah (92%) with white and aromatic Viognier (8%) is a practice that began in the Rhône wineries in France and perfected by most Australian winemakers innovators. The goal is the best approach to balance between power and elegance. Try Tag St Time from Avantis Estate, to see firsthand the achievement of this objective enjoyable.

Fully dedicated with love and respect for the vine, Irene Daskalakis gives a great red from Syrah and Kotsifali. Instinct as all of Daskalakis wines is produced based on the principles of biodynamic farming and is its flagship. Dense, with concentrated fruit flavors, warm alcohol and length in the mouth, a wine which manages to impress.
