I was born into a family where my grandfather was growing vines and my father was producing wine.
Grapes and wine are an intrinsic part of my life.
I have vinified a host of grape varieties both white and red at my winery on Kithairona’s slopes, a place with a rich mythical heritage where satyrs, Megas Pan and Muses worshipped god Dionysos with festivals and wine drinking.
