Tasting Notes
The grapes for the Gai?a Estate come from a 40-year-old estate vineyard, located in the Koutsi region of Nemea, at an altitude of 1,800ft. The climate is moderately cool at this mid-level elevation, resulting in grapes that are concentrated in flavor with well-developed tannins and balanced acidity. The 17.3-acre vineyard is located on a Southwest facing slope, and is closely monitored so that yields remain low.
