  • 100% Agiorgitiko grapes from Gefyraki vineyard in Ancient Nemea
  • Brut Nature style with minimal residual sugar (0.50 g/L) for a pure, dry expression
  • Careful manual harvest followed by whole-bunch maceration for precise colour extraction

  • Smooth, creamy palate with lively freshness and red berry flavours supported by light pastry tones
  • 12.5% alcohol with balanced acidity, ideal for seafood, fresh pasta, and Japanese cuisine

Winemaking & Origin

The grapes are manually harvested from the Gefyraki vineyard in Ancient Nemea and immediately cooled to 5°C. A careful 4-hour maceration with 60% whole-bunch and 40% destemmed grapes takes place in the presence of dry ice to extract the wine's delicate colour. After cold static sedimentation in stainless steel tanks, the must ferments at a controlled 17°C for approximately 25 days.

Following months of cellar aging with periodic bâtonnage, the base wine undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle. The wine rests on its lees for a minimum of 24 months before disgorgement, developing complex layers of flavour and a fine, persistent mousse. This Brut Nature style contains just 0.50 g/L residual sugar, showcasing the grape's natural character without added dosage.

Technical Details: Alcohol 12.5% vol., Total Acidity 7.50 g/L, pH 3.09, Residual Sugars 0.50 g/L. Bottle size: 75cl.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the traditional method in sparkling wine production?
The traditional method involves a second fermentation in the bottle, where the wine ages on its lees for extended periods. This process creates fine bubbles and develops complex flavours such as brioche and pastry notes, resulting in a more refined sparkling wine.
What does Brut Nature mean?
Brut Nature indicates that no dosage (added sugar) is used after disgorgement, resulting in a bone-dry sparkling wine with minimal residual sugar. This style allows the pure character of the Agiorgitiko grape and terroir to shine through.
How should I serve this sparkling rosé?
Serve chilled at 6-8°C in a flute or tulip glass. This wine pairs beautifully with seafood, fresh pasta dishes, and Japanese cuisine. Its lively acidity and delicate fruit profile complement light, refined dishes.
What is unique about Agiorgitiko from Ancient Nemea?
