Gai’a Estate, “Mother Earth,”Nemea, Greece 2019
- Description
One of the pioneers of the modern Greek wine revolution, Gai’a Estate (pronounced Yay-ya) was established in 1994 by Leon Karatsalos and winemaker Yiannis Paraskevopoulos. The estate is named after “Mother Earth,” in honor of the unique terroir that gives birth to these world-class wines. 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.
TA S T I N G N OT E S Delivering both power and a velvety texture, this is serious, fine unfiltered wine has raised the stakes in the Nemea appellation. Deep red-black in color with a complex aromatic profile, good structure, and great volume. Without a doubt, under proper cellar conditions, it will continue to evolve into an even more highly structured wine for at least a decade.
