Established in 1974 by Dimitris Hatzimichalis who actually started his working life as a turkey farmer, the domaine is now largely run by his two sons Leonidas and Panagiotis. The domaine is in Central Greece in the foothills of Mount Parnassus where the cool breezes flow to and from the sea and form an ideal ecosystem for growing vines.

July 2025 - A blend of 2 native Greek grapes plus Sauvignon Blanc... aromas of green apple/pear and some tropical fruits. A creamy texture and a lemony fresh acidity on the palate with a mineral saline finish. Would pair well with grilled fish/chicken and light pasta dish. A delicious wine for the holiday mood!

June 2024 - Light apple and pear aromas with a touch of tropical fruit too, with a well balanced, creamy texture. Would pair perfectly with salads and light summer evening suppers!
