About Winery and Wines
Kir-Yianni was founded in 1997 by Yiannis Boutaris, one of the leading figures in the Greek wine industry, when he left the Boutari Wine Group, the premium family wine company that his grandfather established in 1879.
Today, Stellios Boutaris, member of the fifth generation of winemakers, leads Kir-Yianni into the next phase of its history, by dynamically exploiting the cornerstones of the Kir-Yianni philosophy: desire for innovation, respect for tradition and true knowledge of the wine, from the grape to the end consumer
Balancing between the hundred-year long family tradition and the use of new, innovative techniques in winemaking, our aim in Kir-Yianni is to produce wines that appeal to the taste of the modern consumer reflecting the potential of the Greek vineyard and of its indigenous varieties, such as the noble red Xinomavro.
Our activities are entirely based on the principles of integrated farming. This is a management decision based on a concern to protect the environment as a valuable component of a civilization that is now under threat. Moreover, the integrated farming can ensure the production of high-quality products in Ktima Kir-Yianni.
Proper care in the vineyard, strict selection on the vine and in the cellar, microvinification and meticulous blending form the core of our practices and endow Kir-Yianni wines with typicity, aging potential and a consistent quality from vintage to vintage.
