    Evharis

    🌋 at Domaine Evharis vineyards, 400 m above sea level, at the outskirts of Ousaki volcano, facing Gerania mountains at Megara, in Attica region. In one of the oldest & biggest wine producing regions in Greece and home of Megarea son of Enoe, in ancient times. Vine & Grape bunch in hand: 🍇Malagouzia Terroir: throughout the Greek Vineyard. This aromatic, ethereal Greek indigenous white variety was rediscovered in the ’70 at Aitoloakarnania region, in Central Greece and in the following years conquered the country. Charismatic as it is was definitely one of the first grapes who brought the attention of producers and wine lovers to the indigenous Greek grapes in the last 2 decades, introducing them to the modern wine world. A stylish “pure breed” of defined character, adapted well to the multitude of Greek terroirs, giving different, excellent expressions. It prefers a lower temperatures terroir or a higher altitude vineyard location where it produces elegant white wines in general aromatic, pleasant and joyful with aromas of green apple, pear, citrus and vegetal notes. In the palate it remains light and frui, Facebook, Wine in Greece compare to U.S.????HELP! - Athens Forum, Tripadvisor, DOMAINE EVHARIS "GREEK WINES", europages, Two Greeks create one of the top 25 wines in the world, travel.gr, Greece

Continental Greece

The mountains that ring these vineyards are as much their character as the grapes—cool nights and limestone soils push reds toward bright acidity and whites toward mineral restraint, resisting the softness that defines so much of southern Greece.
