• Summer winds constitute a distinct factor contributing to the uniqueness of the wines.
• The diversity of soils, in combination with climate and grape varieties, shapes the qualitative characteristics of the wines.

• The area has been considered viticultural since the era of Cleisthenes, with a tradition of red wine from Αγιωργίτικο.
• The GKIOULIS estate has held organic certification since 1997 (D.I.O.) and since 2003 under USDA NOP.
