Organic Vineyards Papaioannou

Thanasis Papaioannou, who founded Organic vineyards Papaioannou, is one of the emblematic figures of Greek wine and one of the first wine growers-producers of Greece who adopted and supported the idea of authentic Greek terroirs and their wines, with respect to the environment and its balance. In their large (around 60 hectares) privately owned vineyard in different parts of Nemea (like Xerokampos, at an altitude of 400 m., Ancient Nemea, Valtetsi etc.), Thanasis Papaioannou has made sure to plant the ideal varietal, native or international, depending on the particular mesoclimate.
In Organic vineyards Papaioannou, which are cultivated organically, Thanasis’s son, George, a chemist-oenologist, continues this tradition, in the same exact framework, aiming at the improvement of the quality of their organic wines.
