Peloponnese

Q: Which grape varieties are typical for the Peloponnese?

Agiorgitiko dominates red wines: full-fruited, with soft tannins and good depth. In addition, there are sweet specialties like Mavrodaphne as well as white wines from local varieties that turn out fresh and aromatic.

Q: How does an Imiglykos differ from a dry wine?

Imiglykos means semi-sweet: the wine has noticeable residual sweetness, but remains balanced and not heavy due to natural acidity. It is suitable as an uncomplicated entry or with slightly spicy dishes, while dry wines bring more structure and length.

Wines from the Peloponnese – Greek classics with character

The Peloponnese is one of the oldest wine regions in Greece and stands for wines that are deeply rooted in Greek wine culture. Styles are created here that you will hardly find elsewhere – from resinous white wines to sweet red wines made from ancient indigenous varieties. If you really want to understand Greek wine, you cannot ignore the Peloponnese.

What awaits you here

Our small range shows you four typical representatives of this region. The Retsina from Patraiki is a true Greek classic – a white wine to which pine resin is added during aging, which gives it its unmistakable, resinous character. If you don't know Retsina yet, you should simply try it: it is a piece of Greek wine history in a glass. The Imiglykos wines from Lafkiotis – in red and white – are vinified as semi-dry, pleasantly accessible, and ideal if you are looking for an uncomplicated companion for your meal. Finally, the Mavrodaphne de Patras is a sweet red wine made from the indigenous variety of the same name – powerful, dark, and with a long tradition in the Patras region.

Who is it worth looking for?
