Saint George Nemea Agiorgitiko, Skouras 2021

Red Wine from Greece

6 Reviews

Elegant and refined agiorgitiko (a.k.a. Saint George) from Domaine Skouras, one of the finest producers in Nemea. It's spent 12 months in high-quality French oak barriques and the 2021 vintage is characterised by refreshing acidity alongside the rich bramble and redcurrant fruit.

Skouras

George Skouras, who trained as a winemaker in Dijon and began his career in Cephallonia, moved to Nemea in 1986, where he created his own winery and became influential in the Greek wine renaissance. He makes wine from both indigenous (particularly aghiorghitiko) and international varieties (loved by the domestic market) in a state of the art winery outside Argos. They own 40 hectares and 40 more under contract. His Cuvee Prestige wines are models of their kind and his top wines, Nemea Grande Cuvee and Megas Oinos are world class.

Round and polished. Should resonate with those less familiar with Greek wines.

Generous, expressive Greek red that shows you can achieve the sensation of ripeness without much in the way of residual sugar. Good for a hearty stew.
