Dryopi 2022 by ktima Dryopi is one of the finest and most honest Agiorgitiko wines out there! Juicy, with perfectly integrated oak and velvety tannins.
Ktima Dryopi confirms what many already believe: that Yiannis Tselepos crafts perhaps the most cosmopolitan expression of Agiorgitiko. It’s no coincidence that even French winemakers envy his creations. In the vineyard of old vines, located in the renowned “Grand Cru” region of Koutsi in Nemea, low yields and pioneering viticultural techniques allow Yiannis to capture the very best of both the variety and the terroir. With a gentle extraction lasting just six days, followed by 8–10 months of ageing in French oak barrels, the result is a silky, fruit-forward red wine that wins you over from the very first sip.
You can enjoy it now, but it’ll be even better in 2–3 years—especially alongside a hearty, home-cooked tomato stew!
