Ktima Gerovassiliou Viognier is an opulent, benchmark white wine crafted on the sun-kissed slopes of Epanomi in Northern Greece. First planted on the estate in 1993 in collaboration with the Agriculture School of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, this bottling showcases how brilliantly the classic Rhône variety thrives in cool Mediterranean microclimates. Produced by legendary winemaker Vangelis Gerovassiliou, it stands as one of Greece's finest examples of international white winemaking.

Why You'll Love It

This is a lush, highly aromatic dry white that offers a world-class alternative to French Condrieu. Grown on coastal estate vineyards surrounded by marine soils, the grapes benefit from cooling sea breezes that balance their rich, natural intensity. Barrel fermentation and extended lees aging in French oak impart a velvety, unctuous mouthfeel without overpowering the pristine stone fruit and exotic floral core, creating a wine of remarkable structure, depth, and elegance.

Vineyard & Production

The fruit is hand-harvested from ecologically farmed plots in Epanomi, situated on a peninsula surrounded on three sides by the Aegean Sea. Here, the soils are predominantly sandy and rich in ancient marine fossils. Following a period of cold skin maceration to extract intense varietal aromatics, the must undergoes fermentation in French oak barrels (a mix of new and seasoned oak). The wine is then aged on its fine lees for several months, acquiring a creamy texture, subtle oak spice, and enhanced complexity before bottling.

Tasting Notes

Pouring a luminous straw-yellow with golden highlights, this wine opens with a seductive, perfumed bouquet of ripe peach, juicy apricot, and mango, complemented by delicate notes of jasmine, orange blossom, and a hint of honey. On the palate, it is full-bodied, rich, and voluptuous, offering a mouth-coating core of stone fruit, bergamot, and Turkish delight. Balanced by integrated acidity, it finishes with impressive length, marked by subtle smoky accents and toasted spice.

Perfect Pairings

Thanks to its full body, rich texture, and aromatic complexity, this white wine excels alongside rich seafood and fragrant, spiced cuisine. It pairs magnificently with lobster tail, seared scallops, grilled king prawns, and crab cakes. It is also an outstanding match for poached salmon with citrus sauce, roasted chicken or pork, asparagus dishes, and mild, curry-inspired Asian cuisine.
