Gaia Estate Notios White 2024 750ml

Three of the finest Greek white varieties joined their forces for the production of NOTIOS WHITE. These two dominant varieties have been compatible for years and come from neighboring regions. Roditis Alepou originating from the mountainous Aigialeia, at an altitude of approximately 1000 m , and Moschofilero which originates from the Arcadian plateau, are blended harmoniously in all the wineries of the Peloponnese. In this traditional blend we add the now cosmopolitan Assyrtiko from Santorini, raised in a Peloponnesian way. This addition was warmly welcomed because it provided what was missing: Strength, Length and Depth. It can be enjoyed with a cuisine of medium to high intensity, or even on its own as an aperitif, but always in good company.

Varietal

Moschofilero

Moschofilero is a pink-skinned grape variety native to Greece, primarily grown in the Peloponnese region. It produces aromatic white wines that are crisp, floral, and vibrant in character. Moschofilero wines typically exhibit flavors of rose petals, jasmine, and citrus fruits such as lemon and tangerine, along with a distinctive spiciness. They are light to medium-bodied with refreshing acidity and a slightly effervescent texture, making them lively and enjoyable as an apéritif or paired with Mediterranean cuisine. What makes Moschofilero unique is its aromatic profile, which combines floral and citrus notes with a hint of exotic spices, creating a sensory experience that reflects the grape’s Greek origins and the sunny climate of the Peloponnese. Moschofilero wines are appreciated for their crispness, versatility, and the ability to evoke the essence of Greek hospitality and culinary traditions.
