Anemos white
Regional white dry wine of Peloponnese
Grape Varieties: Roditis (white fox)
Region of Production: Ancient Nemea
At the highest point of Ancient Nemea at a chalky and graveled soil, with very light composition we had to plant a variety less demanding in water and rich soil. We selected Roditis, an indigenous Greek variety, at dense planting –595 vines per stremm- applying the appropriate pruning and training system harvesting only very few grapes per vine which due to the microclimate of the region mature easily and in uniformity. The foliage due to the dense planting protects the grapes from the sun radiation securing the demanding quantity and quality.
The variety of Roditis unfolds its merits. A fruity wine with aromas and flavour of fresh fruits: apples, bananas, pears, pineapple and lemon blossoms. Pleasant and balanced wine with soft mouthfeel, refreshing acidity and fruity aftertaste.
Food Suggestions: fish, white meat, pasta and also as an aperitif. Best served at a temperature of 8-12oC.

Anemos red
Regional red dry wine of Peloponnese
Grape Varieties: Agiorgitiko (St.George)
Region of Production: Ancient Nemea
At the slopes of Giougriza Hills in Ancient Nemea, where the excavations brought to light ancient jars containing grape seeds and only a few meters from the Temple of Nemeiou Dia, a small vineyard is established from 1965 up to 1984 with Agiorgitiko. Aiming for a wine which would express only the characteristics of this variety and with clean aroma and flavour; we grow grapes applying on a three generations experience and knowledge. Personal treatment and cultivated practices from the formation of the grapes up to maturation guarantees the high quality result.
The winemaking process could not be other than special, in a way which Agiorgitiko could express with the most intense way the rich aromatic character into a full bodied wine with soft tannins. The result is a deep-coloured, purple wine with intense fruity and clean aroma and the flavours of cherries, strawberries and gooseberries dominating. The silky mouthfeel and the full of grapejuice aftertaste give the impression that you are tasting grapes from the vineyard on September.
Food Suggestions: red meat, pasta with red sauces and assortment of cheeses. Best served at a temperature of 14-16oC. |

Stone Hills
Regional white dry wine of Peloponnese
Grape Varieties: Chardonnay & Malagousia
Region of Production: Ancient Nemea
The Greek variety of Malagousia combined with the world famous Chardonnay. The fruity characters of Chardonnay with pineapples, bananas, apples and pears married uniquely with the more ripe characters of peach, apricot and orange of Malagousia. Chardonnay’s acidity softens from the pleasant mouth feel of Malagousia. A fragile balance creating a delicated wine.
Malagousia is a rare indigenous white variety; very sensitive and hard to cultivate which a few years ago, had almost disappeared from Greece. Its unique characters have gained our attention and we couldn’t but plant it in one of our vineyards. Among with Malagousia at a chalky site of the same vineyard we planted Chardonnay searching for complexity and fullness for the blend of these two varieties.
Food Suggestions: creasy fishes, seafood pasta, white meat, salads and cheeses. Best served at a temperature of 8-12oC. |

Unjustified this vineyard planted into rocks, could be proud of its fruit. Its position at a poor, full of clay soil, its slope (17%) and its north-east direction give all the elements for an ideal grape for a wine made to age with us.
