Avgoustiatis
Avgoustiatis is a red wine grape that is primarily grown in Greece, specifically in the regions of Attica and the Peloponnese. This grape is known for producing wines with intense flavors and aromas.
Avgoustiatis grapes have a thick skin, which contributes to their deep color and high tannin levels. The wines made from this grape are typically full-bodied and have a rich, velvety texture. They often exhibit notes of dark fruits, such as blackberries and plums, as well as hints of spices and herbs.
Natural Wine lovers will likely know theAvgoustiatis grape from the popular Sous le Vegetal wine 'Auguste' which is a lighter expression of the grape, yet still with tannic structure and great agability.
