Description
In the land of Dionysus and his mother Semeli, George Kokotos, a civil engineer by training, has been practicing the age old art of fine wine production; giving to his wines the name of their muse “Semeli”.
Semeli was founded in 1979. It is located at an altitude of 600 metres at Koutsi, one of the most celebrated “crus” of Nemea. Over the past several years the focus has been on the creation of high quality Greek wines. But quality wine is only possible with the best grapes and the best grapes have a lot to do with the “terroir”. In the wineries in Nemea (Koutsi) and Mantinia, Semeli takes full advantage of the privileged Mediterranean climate, the extraordinary potential of the soil and the varieties they cultivate, which, together with the sun that bathes the landscapes, are determining factors for the high quality Semeli wines. But the great particularity is the process of winemaking using gravity. From pressing to bottling, the entire process uses the weight of the raisin for downward movement in order to avoid using pumps.
Bright, yellow-green color. Elegant floral aromas with lemon, citrus and rose petals, typical of the Moscholfilero variety. Rich and fruity on the palate, with a long aromatic aftertaste. Serve with seafood, shellfish and fish in lemon sauces, as well as Asian specialties.
