  • Lefkadian land (Vardea)

    The right vinification and the passion for the result gave an exuberant and full-bodied wine, capable of taking you on a journey to the endless blue of the Ionian Sea.

  • Muses Estate Wine 9 dry white wine Thiva Boeotia

    Assyrtiko, Trebbiano and Sauvignon Blanc combine beautifully in a white wine from the Valley of the Muses, with an amazing price/quality ratio. Its juicy fruit, freshness and delightful aftertaste bring it to our daily table alongside all seafood and vegetable dishes.

  • Paranga Kir Yianni Amindeo Florina

    The Paranga of Kir-Yianni is a wine with intense but refined aromas of jasmine, white fleshy peach and apricot, typical of Malagouzia. The freshness of the mountain Roditis, pleasantly balanced, offers the blend fresh acidity and nerve. Served cool, it is pleasant to drink on its own, but also with Mediterranean dishes.

  • Tselepou Estate Mantinia Peloponnese White Dry

    Excellent freshness, intense acidity and delicate, intense aromas of citrus, lemon blossom and rose. Clean mouthfeel with an intense aftertaste. Ideal with fish, salads and dolmades.

  • ERGO Landidis Estate Nemea Peloponnese White Dry

    100% Sauvignon Blanc that has been fermented in tank and at low temperatures to retain its exuberant fruit. Tropical fruit and lemon blossoms, elegant with refreshing acidity. Green fruit salads, vegetable pies, white meats and of course seafood and shellfish. Excellent aperitif.

Rose Wine

  • NAUTILUS La Tour Melas Lamia Fthiotida

    Grenache Rouge, Agiorgitiko, Syrah. Pink wine, light and bright in appearance, with orange highlights. Its colour is light pinkish. Its aroma is fresh and full of cherries, pomegranates, rose and citrus peel. On the palate it is delicious with acidity, more than medium body and a lingering finish that focuses on fresh fruit.

  • Three Witches Barafaka Estate Nemea Peloponnese

    A wine with a bright pinkish colour and complexity on the nose with aromas of red fruits and floral notes. A rosé semi-sweet semi-sparkling wine, from the Agiorgitiko, Syrah and Moschofilero varieties. Full on the palate with pleasant acidity and a long finish. You can enjoy it as an aperitif but it is an ideal accompaniment to seafood, white meat, cheese and pasta. Serve at 8-10°C. Exuberant and full on the palate with balanced acidity and a dynamic presence of bubbles. The above elements work synergistically to offer a generous and creamy mouthfeel with harmonious sweetness and a fruity aromatic finish.

Red Wine

  • Papaioannou Estate Nemea Peloponnese red dry

    Variety: Agiorgitiko. A red wine characterized by clean and concentrated red fruit aromas with a background of vanilla and milk caramel.
