Malagousia

Greece

Malagousia is a white grape nearly lost to Greek viticulture until Professor Vassilis Logothetis rediscovered it in Nafpaktia in the 1970s and passed it to his student Vangelis Gerovassiliou, who developed it at Porto Carras and later at his own estate in Epanomi. It is now grown chiefly in Macedonia in northern Greece and produces aromatic, full-textured whites.

Winemaking & Aging
