Up-and-coming grape varieties
Apart from Greece’s world-renowned and distinguished gems—Assyrtiko Santorini, Moschofilero Mantinia, Nemea Agiorgitiko, and Xinomavro Naoussa / Amynteo—there are several new, up-and-coming grape varieties which, depending on the type and style of wine they yield, show impressive potential and seem to be but a step away from having themselves acclaimed and established in worldwide wine affairs.
Among these up-and-coming grape varieties are some of established status which are now being approached from new angles. Mavrodaphne is an example of such a variety. Although well-known and long-established as Greece’s native variety for the production of sweet wines, its vinification for the production of dry red wines is a relatively uncharted yet quite promising territory which firmly re-classifies Mavrodaphne as being among the up-and-coming grape varieties.

With the already established flagships of the Greek vineyard in the vanguard, wines produced from up-and-coming grape varieties offer wine lovers many reasons to branch out toward them. For one thing, they offer something new, uncommon, and rare, far from the established wine regime. For another, they offer the potential for exploration, a prospect that never fails to stir the heartstrings of wine lovers. After all, is there anyone who is averse to tasting a wine today that tomorrow may become a new and irresistible center of attention?
