Wine Region Attica

Attica is located on the edge of the Aegean Sea, north of Peloponnese.

The region is home to the city of Athens.

Known for the production of Retsina, a wine flavored with pine resin.

The traditional grape for retsina is Savatiano with Assyrtiko and Rhoditis sometimes blended in.

Attica also produces quality wines from the Savatiano grape, which is naturally resistant to the heat of this region.

Modern versions of Savatiano wines can show a creamy texture with notes of lemon and apple, especially when grown in low-yield vineyards.
