Notes from the Winemaker:

Gaia was founded in 1994 by Leon Karatsalos and Yiannis Paraskevopoulos with a commitment to producing quality wine from the unique indigenous grapes of their native Greece. Both owners have degrees in agronomy from the University of Thessaloniki and Paraskevopoulos also received a Ph.D in Oenology from the University of Bordeaux II.

The Southern Mediterranean, an area famous all over the world for its healthy cuisine, would not be complete without red wine. Our red NOTIOS (the Southerner) originates from selected, low-yield Agiorgitiko grapes of the hills surrounding Nemea. Situated in the heart of the vineyard, our small but modern winery painstakingly produces a pleasantly complex wine, which can be further aged an additional 36-48 months. This wine is best characterized by its intensity, its deep red color, its clarity and its elegance.


What Does It Taste Like?

NOTIOS blends hints of gooseberry, butter caramel and a discreet wood fragrance, creating a particularly soft flavor with a low tannin content that underscores its rich, well-structured, velvety body.


Ratings & Reviews

Wine Enthusiast Magazine:
"This fruitier-style Agiorgitiko has an approachable, versatile character. On the nose, blackberry, cinnamon, spice and red berries lead, followed by a balance of fruit and dry spice on the palate. Balanced but has an earthy spin that speaks of its origins. A great go-to red." - S.K. (4/1/2010)
