The winery sits at the heart of the 40ha large family vineyard in Gialtra, a small village of northern Evia, 14 km from Aidipsos Spa town. The vineyard spreads across the foothills of mountain “Telethrio”, next to Istiaia and the Aegean Sea, at an altitude ranging from 150 to 400m. The first plantings of mainly indigenous grape varieties were carried out by Konstantinos Vriniotis’s father. Amongst them, Vradiano is a rare and endangered Greek variety, only to be found in Northern Evia and due to its remote location and challenging access nowhere else in the world. The family has revived and cultivates the variety in the last 20 years, producing two monovarietal wines, the highly acclaimed Vradiano Wild Ferment, a highly extracted red, matured in French oak for 12 months and the unusual “herbal” and food-friendly rose, IAMA. The winemaking at the winery is a family affair, always done with care and the necessary help of modern technology with a human in command. Red wines mature in the winery’s own cellar and they are bottled unfiltered.
