​

Nestled in Ramnouda, the vineyards of Zeginis Winery with Agiorgitiko and Merlot thrive harmoniously under the Mediterranean climate, ensuring optimal ripening of the grapes.

The first sorting of the grapes takes place directly in the vineyard, following traditional harvesting methods. This is followed by a gentle removal process and the transfer of the grape must to temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Cold extraction prior to fermentation and continuous extraction throughout alcoholic fermentation further enhance the complexity of the wine.

Finally, Agiorgitiko - Merlot Zeginis is aged for 12 months in oak barrels before bottling. This exceptional wine exhibits rich character, medium velvety tannins and seductive aromas of ripe red fruit and spice.

With an aging potential of 5-7 years, it exemplifies the expertise and dedication that has been poured into the art of winemaking, resulting in a truly remarkable masterpiece.
