About Winery and Wines

Nestled in the historic and fertile region of Nemea, the Barafakas Winery is a testament to the rich winemaking traditions passed down through generations of the Barafakas family. With a legacy rooted deeply in the land, this family-owned winery has transformed their ancestral vineyards into a beacon of quality and tradition. Christos Barafakas, driven by a lifelong dream, began his vinification journey in 2002, meticulously cultivating the family's 80 stremma estate in Nemea—one of Greece's most renowned PDO wine regions. Known for its unique microclimate, Nemea is the birthplace of the celebrated Agiorgitiko grape, which thrives in the area's exceptional terroir. Visitors to the Barafakas Winery are welcomed into a world where tradition meets passion, offering a genuine connection to the land and a glimpse into the heart of Greek winemaking.

At Barafakas Winery, the art of winemaking is more than a tradition; it is a passion for excellence that is reflected in every bottle. The star of the vineyard is Agiorgitiko, the iconic Greek variety that flourishes in Nemea's distinctive terroir, producing wines of remarkable depth and character. Alongside Agiorgitiko, the winery cultivates a selection of both Greek and international grape varieties, each carefully nurtured to express the unique qualities of the region. The result is a diverse portfolio of wines that embody the richness of Nemea and the dedication of the Barafakas family. From the vineyard to the cellar, each step of the winemaking process is carried out with meticulous care, ensuring that every wine tells the story of the land and the family's enduring commitment to quality. Whether you are a connoisseur or a wine lover, Barafakas Winery invites you to experience the harmonious balance of tradition and innovation in every glass.
