Domaine Papagiannakos

Founded in 1919 and located in Markopoulo, Attica, just 30 kilometres from Athens, the Papagiannakos winery is the first bioclimatic winery in Greece and was specially designed to mark a new era. The family-owned vineyards are planted mainly with the Savatiano variety.

Other Greek indigenous varieties such as Malagouzia, Assyrtiko, and Agiorgitiko have been cultivated since the family’s third generation assumed ownership.

The landscape and terroir of the Attica vineyards — mild winters, hot dry summers assisted by sea breeze, and limestone soils — create the ideal conditions for dry white wines with intense mineral aroma and a perfectly balanced palate.

Domaine Papagiannakos wines have earned a multitude of awards and hold a distinguished place on the list of the finest wines exported from Greece.
