Best Greek Red Wines

Le Sang de la Pierre - Aivalis Winery

Surely the most impressive Agiorgitiko that has been released so far! Each year it sells out almost instantly and the reason is the huge fruit concentration, its very good velvety structure and its impressive complexity.

Merlot - Mpougiouris Estate

One of your most favorite Merlot! Velvety, rich, mature fruit and perfectly integrated barrel at an unbeatable price! How can you not love it?

Fysis - Athanasiou Winery

The first Agiorgitiko without sulphites does not need any recommendations! Its uniqueness made it highly sought after.

Experimental Syrah without sulfites - Matsa Estate

Impressive and "natural" immediately stole the show! The reason is the experience of Roxane Matsa and that Syrah is among of the favorite varieties of Greeks.

Kotsifali-Merlot - Karavitakis Vineyards

Smart, modern label and an original Cretan blend at a surprising price! Soft, rich and with the animal character of Kotsifali shining, you loved it ...

Best Greek White Wines

Malagousia - Kitrvs Winery

The best Malagousia by far! Each year it gets even better, and the stelvin cap gives extra points of originality and style.

Fine Assyrtiko - Anatolikos Vineyards

Extremely successful blend of Assyrtiko - Malagousia, with an elegant touch of oak and a wonderful buttery texture. On the bonus, its tremendous ability to pair with infinite dishes, from grilled sea bream to pork with honey.

Moschopolis 6 - Moschopolis Winery

It is a relatively new addition, however, it has gained and built the myth of this particular wine from Assyrtiko and Xinomavro. Earthy, rich, oily with balanced oak, it was one of the most beloved whites of summer.

Santorini Vassaltis - Vasaltis Winery

It has managed to become one of the most popular Greek wines and, in particular, the most beloved Santorini! Stylish and exuberant, perfectly balanced every year it places itself among the best sellers!

Moschato Spinas - Karavitakis Winery

Fresh, aromatic, playfull, Moschato Spinas of Karavitakis Winery from Chania was the most aromatic white of the year. And in Greece we love our aromas.

Best Rosé Greek Wines

Tomi Rose - Troupis Winery

The fine rose of Moschofilero in the super-chic bottle that resembles a flower has managed to move everyone. Perfect as an aperitif but also with all the oily and fish greek dishes, has become the integral Greek summer wine.

Avdiros Rose - Vourvoukelis Estate

The semi-dry Avdiros Rose is the rosé with the most fanatical friends. The sixs are leaving one after the other and you do not seem to ever get enough.
