Cyclades PGI covers winemaking across all the Cycladic islands in the South Aegean Sea. Rules state that vineyards must be planted above thirty metres.
The island of Santorini is home to some of Greece’s freshest, most terroir driven wines. Produced from the Assyrtiko grape, the best of these are expressive, mineral influenced wines that have the ability to age well.
The island of Paros is home to some good white wines produced with the Monemvasia. The best wines generally come from grapes grown around Mt Profitis. The most popular red grape is Mandilaria.
