Malagousia
On the brink of extinction until the mid-70’s, Malagousia is now one of the most prominent indigenous white varieties of Greece.
Very vigorous and prone to diseases, in the hands of the skillful producer, Malagousia can give wines with seductive stone fruit, herbal and muscat-like aromas, depending on the ripeness of the grapes. Pleasantly refreshing, often warm in alcohol with a well-structured body, Malagousia wines show complexity and a powerful character.
