DRY RED WINE
The most famous brand name of the NICO LAZARIDI Winery is related to the company’s history, as well as to the oenological revival of the Prefecture of Drama in 1987. The vineyard, where the grapes are cultivated, encompasses perimetrically the Château Nico Lazaridi Winery, which is fully adjusted to the natural environment.
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with Sangiovese varieties confirms the geographical indication and the superior quality of the Château Nico Lazaridi.
The story continues!
This year marks the 35th anniversary of the release of the first Château. The label has changed in order to commemorate this milestone with a painting by Yiannis Gigourtakis. With a dreamy narrative that seems to have sprung from renaissance illustrated manuscripts, the painter renders on his canvas the journey of the senses awakened by each sip of wine. Gigourtakis drew insperation not only from his visit to the winery but also from Florence, a region inextricably linked to the family of Nico Lazaridi.
