Nemeion Estate 2004 Hgemon Grande Réserve Agiorgitiko (Nemea)
- $65
Succulent raisins, red berries and spice lead this enticing red from Greece. Fine tannins, an elegant, soft mouthfeel, and layers of dark fruit, cedar and cocoa add to the appeal. A lovely wine with a poised character.

Nasiakos 2007 Agiorgitiko (Nemea)
- $20
This wine knows exactly what it wants to be: fresh, fruity and easy to love. With its red cherry, black pepper and cedary spice aromas and flavors, it’s a balanced, approachable red with style. It has backbone but also a soft touch. A fun and modern expression of the variety.

Palivou 2001 Nemea Agiorgitiko (Nemea)
- $20
Artfully oaked, this Agiorgitiko-based wine boasts hints of cinnamon, clove and even a dash of coconut. Cherries and pears give a unique quality to the fruit, while the tannins are soft and impart a creamy texture to this admittedly international-style wine.

Palivou 2003 Ammos Agiorgitiko (Nemea)
- $35
A single vineyard wine with plenty of oak nuances, this shows darker flavors than other Agiorgitikos: Blueberry mixes with the telltale cherry, while vanilla caresses the whole. Strong tannins envelop a medium-bodied wine with good acidity, while the nose offers supple blackberry and blueberry fruit, vanilla and some meaty notes.

Papaioannou 2003 Old Vines Single Vineyard Agiorgitiko (Nemea)
- $26
This single-vineyard Agiorgitiko has an earthy olive nose and smooth, integrated flavors of red berry, herbs and spice. Soft but structured tannins and a spin of spice on the finish recommend it for heartier dishes, but it’s good enough to savor on its own. Elegant, but with some muscle.

Palivou 2007 Agiorgitiko (St. George) Rosé (Corinth)
- $16
A full-bodied rosé reflective of the cherry and berry Agiorgitiko character. The nose offers a fresh, fragrant but earthy strawberry, rhubarb and floral element, and flavors of lush cherry mingle with a clean acidity, giving the wine dimension with a light touch.

Katogi & Strofilia 2005 Fresco Averoff Agiorgitiko (Nemea)
- $15
This Nemean red has a hearty, rich character that starts with its aromas of plum, spiced meat and red berries. On the palate, it offers rich, savory flavors of cedar, spice, mocha and plum. Offers complexity and freshness in one package.
