Avaton PGI Epanomi, Domaine Gerovassiliou, Macedonia

Tasting Note

A medium-bodied wine with an excellent, complex structure. A very individual wine with jammy blackberry fruit, hints of spice and mouth watering, juicy fruit.

Producer Note

Domaine Gerovassiliou is the brainchild of Vangelis Gerovassiliou. He initiated the revival of the family vineyard by planting the nearly extinct Malagousia in 1981. This state of the art winery is now surrounded by 56 hectares of meticulously well cared vineyards on the slopes of Epanomi. Domaine Gerovassiliou guarantees consistent, high quality wines of international acclaim every year.
