Acheon Amphorae Sideritis
Pink hued colour, aromas of greengage and white currants. It has a citrus quality like Riesling but a little softer. Crisp, yet nicely plump, this will appeal to fans of fruit-driven wine. Owned by the Katsikostas family, now with the third generation, Acheon is in Aigialeia in the Peloponnese. This is a relatively cool high-altitude area, perfect for white grape cultivation. Iron S is produced from 100% Sideritis, a rare, pink-skinned variety, indigenous to the Peloponnese.

Acheon Winery, Aigialeia, Peloponnese
Acheon Winery is a small, family-owned winery, run by two sisters – Sosanna and Katerina. Their focus is on the vinification of indigenous grape varieties such as the Roditis and Sideritis, cultivated from the seaside at Aigio to the mountainous region of Aigialeia. Following the traditional winemaking passed down the generations, which we now call minimal intervention, the sisters aim to produce top quality wines from indigenous Greek varieties that naturally express the terroir and history of the region.
