What Are We Drinking Now? Gaia Monograph Moschofilero & Agiorgitiko

Kerry has two Greek wines you should be sipping right now!

Gaia Monograph Moschofilero & Agiorgitiko

With the summer heat beating down upon us, the time is right for chillable reds and fresh, bright, acid-driven whites. We have two Greek wines that fit the bill. While the grape names may be hard to pronounce, the wines are oh-so-easy to drink.

The Grape: Moschofilero
Mosh-koh-FEE-leh-roh

This intensely perfumed wine is vibrant, juicy, delicious, and is bursting with citrus and floral aromas. Dry, medium-bodied, and full of zippy acidity, it pairs well with seafood, Asian cuisine, and a wide array of appetizers.

The Grape: Agiorgitiko
Ah-yor-YEE-te-ko

Excellent when served slightly chilled, this medium-bodied red wine boasts aromas of ripe cherry, raspberry, and hints of vanilla. The pleasant fruit-forward palate finishes with smooth tannins and pairs well with charcuterie, BBQ, and grilled meats.
