Tasting notes Gerovassiliou Avaton 2022

Red wine Aged in wood Respectful agriculture. 16 months in French oak barrels.

Gerovassiliou Avaton 2022 is a red wine that transports you directly to the Greek coast with each sip. Its intense purple hue heralds the richness of ripe red and black fruit, interwoven with sweet spices such as vanilla, cinnamon, and a hint of cocoa. On the palate, it is full-bodied and elegant, with smooth, mature tannins that embrace the juicy fruit, while notes of cedar, butter, and tobacco complete the experience. Fresh and well-balanced, it invites you to enjoy an afternoon of discovery and engaging conversation, leaving a pleasant and lingering aftertaste.

About Gerovassiliou Avaton

Gerovassiliou Avaton is a red wine coupage of the Limnio, Mavroudi and Mavrotragano varieties produced by the Ktima Gerovassiliou winery in the I.G.P. Epanomi in Thessaly, Greece.

 

The clusters used to make the Gerovassiliou Avaton wine undergo alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in special Burgundy oak tanks and then age in French oak barrels. The Limnio grape, which is one of the three varieties that make up the coupage, is actually the oldest referenced Greek grape variety, having been mentioned by playwright Aristophanes in the 5th century BC.

 

The Ktima Gerovassiliou winery is located in Epanomi, which is 25 km southeast of Thessaloniki. They have 72 hectares of vineyards growing native and foreign varieties in a Mediterranean climate. The soils are sandy with some clay substrates and calcareous rocks. There have even been marine fossils discovered here.

 

Gerovassiliou Avaton is an authentic, balanced and characterful wine that is a great introduction to the immense wealth that can be found in the varietal wines of Greece.
