This philosophy is reflected in their wines, made to provide wine lovers around the world with the finest expressions of Greek terroir. In Nemea, a semi-mountainous region with stony soils at an altitude of 850 meters, the Agiorgitiko grape thrives. This land, with its cool summers and wet winters, produces red wines known for their aging potential. In Santorini, the volcanic soil, high summer temperatures, and strong sea winds create the perfect environment for the ancient Assyrtiko grape variety, which has been cultivated for over 3,000 years. Assyrtiko is primarily responsible for the production of rare, distinctive white wines that capture the essence of this timeless landscape.
