The variety...
Anyone in pursuit of a Greek white grape variety which promises refreshment and enlivenment, offering unprecedented exoticism in a Mediterranean country, should look no further than Moschofilero (Moss-koh-FEE-leh-roh).
“Moscho”, the first part of its name, has the meaning of a charismatic grape, the most aromatic one of the Filéri grape family. Despite the reddish or greyish hue of its berries, it is almost exclusively used for the production of dry whites, and some sparkling wines.
Discover the unique character of the grape by choosing one of Cinque’s wine tastings or enjoy it by the glass at wine bars in Athens.
The winery...
Just outside Tripoli, in the heart of the Peloponnese, Vervenioti Winery embodies a three-generation family tradition of viticulture, deeply rooted in the land of Mantinia.
The estate, located within the renowned PDO Mantinia wine zone, is dedicated to producing exceptional wines with a focus on Moschofilero, the region’s signature aromatic variety.
