Gershgorin Circle theorem- implications

(I am considering only real matrices)
Does only hold that if the area of all Gershgorin Circles is positiv $Rightarrow$ the Matrix is positiv definit (trivial)
or does also follow the vice versa
the Matrix is positiv definit $Rightarrow$ the area of all Gershgorin Circles is positiv

The reverse direction does not hold:
$$
A=pmatrix{ 1 & 2\ 2 & 10}
$$
is positive definite, but the Gershgorin circle for the first row contains numbers with negative real part.
Thanks, I found something like it for special matrices in my old exercise papers and was wondering if I can use it to check if a $LL^T$ Cholesky decomposition is possible, seems it is not the case, thanks
