Gaia Wines Notios Red
Agiorgitiko,Syrah
| Description: | The Southern Mediterranean, an area famous all over the world for its healthy cuisine, would not be complete without red wine. Our red Notios (the Southerner) originates from selected, low-yield Agiorgitiko grapes of the hills surrounding Nemea. Situated in the heart of the vineyard, our small but modern winery painstakingly produces a pleasantly complex wine, which can be further aged an additional 36-48 months. This wine is best characterized by its intensity, its deep red color, its clarity and its elegance. Notios blends hints of gooseberry, butter caramel and a discreet wood fragrance, creating a particularly soft flavor with a low tannin content that underscores its rich, well-structured, velvety body. Technical notes Malolactic fermentation was not undertaken due to l ow levels of L-malic acid After Fermentation, wines are stored under N2/co2 atmosphere., two rackings for clarification, sort passage (45 days) in new 225 lit French oak casks (Nevers & Allier) with medium-plus toasting Wines are clarified by egg albumin, Bottling is secured through 0,8 m membrane filters.

Producer One of the pioneers of the modern Greek wine revolution, Gai'a Estate (pronounced Yay-ya) was established in 1994 by Leon Karatsalos and winemaker Yiannis Paraskevopoulos. Their mission was to capture the best that Greece's indigenous grapes have to offer by merging traditional viticultural and production methods with innovative techniques. The estate is named after "Mother Earth," in honor of the unique terroir that gives birth to these world-class wines. |
