Orfanos Estate

Orfanos Estate is located on the west side of the Achaia Prefecture, northwest of the Peloponnese, on the suburb of Patras called Paralia. The mild Mediterranean climate and rich soils that characterize the area, make it suitable for vine cultivation.

The privately-owned vineyards both in Paralia Patras and Palaia Peristera in Western Achaia, provide the raw material for the quality winemaking which takes place in the contemporary winery of the Estate.

The determining factors for the high quality of our wines are not only the privileged climate and the excellent potential of the cultivated land but also the selected varieties. These include the Greek Malagouzia, Mavrodaphne, Assyrtiko, Roditis as well as the foreign Merlot and Syrah.

Since 2022, Orfanos Estate turned to different styles of vinification and proceeded to the production of vegan and natural wines. The exclusive use of products of plant origin for the clarification, the expression of indigenous yeasts and the mild intervention in our products, are all achievements we are proud of.
