SANTORINI · NEMEA · SINCE 1994
Wines that capture the authentic character of each place
From the volcanic slopes of Santorini, home of the incomparable Assyrtiko, to the rich soils of Nemea, birthplace of the noble Agiorgitiko.
Since 1994, two agronomists,
two places, one idea
Yiannis Paraskevopoulos and Leon Karatsalos founded GAIA on one conviction: that Greek grape varieties belong among the great wines of the world. First in Santorini, in an old tomato cannery by the sea; then in Koutsi, Nemea. Thirty years on, the ammonite on our label still means the same thing: the memory of a place, in every glass.

Optimus — Agiorgitiko at its ideal
From the rare 001VNB clone and a single vineyard in semi-mountainous Koutsi, Nemea, comes an Agiorgitiko of striking aromatic depth and velvety texture. Wine Advocate 94 points.
The meeting point of top Greek and French varieties
With the Gaia S series, GAIA Wines expands the character of Assyrtiko and Agiorgitiko in synergy with the great international varieties Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah. Gaia S White, with aromas of nature and citrus fruits, Gaia S Rosé, or in other words, spring in a glass, and Gaia S Red, a robust, rich, and generous wine.
The story of Submerged Thalassitis
A wine that ages 25 metres below the surface of the Aegean, in the dark and silence of the seabed. The idea, the first experiment and what we learned in the years that followed.
GRAPE VARIETIES
The varieties
Two wineries, two worlds
In historic Koutsi, Nemea, and on volcanic Santorini, walk the vineyards, see how the wine is made and taste it in the place that gave it life.
