Domaine Skouras Peplo
Domaine Skouras Peplo. A blend of Agiorghitiko, Syrah, and Mavrofilero. Each variety contributes with 1/3 to the wine. The Syrah ages on its fine lees in stainless steel tanks, the Agiorghitiko in Acacia barrels and the Mavrofilero in egg shaped amphoras with skin contact for 4 months.
Peplo. The skin of the Mavrofilero is contained in a fabric within the amphora to allow a better control during the extraction process.
At the end of its maturation the fabric helps us to make the separation of the young wine from the skins.

Winery Description
The story of Domaine Skouras started in 1986, with an emblematic wine, Megas Oenos, which became synonymous with George Skouras. Back then, Megas Oenos was a pioneering blend of Agiorgitiko and Cabernet Sauvignon. Today, Megas Oenos is one of the wines with a consistent presence in the world of European wine, with a proven ageing ability, rivalled only by very few Greek wines.
