Vineyards
Vineyard of Steni
The vineyard is located at Steni village at an altitude of 430 meters in sandy loam soil with schist lying underground. In this terroir, we cultivate the four Greek varieties Assyrtiko, Monemvasia, Mavrothiriko and Mavrotragano. The low temperatures in the summer and the coolness of the “Antara” phenomenon of low mist during the ripening period promise an excellent quality harvest.
The vineyard is based on organic cultivation, everything is done manually and precisely thanks to our highly trained staff who ensure the health and longevity of the vines. Taking care of biodiversity, we apply green manure and we avoid the use of pesticides and herbicides.
