Giannikos Winery

The Giannikos Winery is a family owned organic winery based in Corinth on the Peloponnese in Greece. We own 8 ha of vines on two sites, one in Corinth around our winery and the other in Mycenae, near the famous archaeological site and birthplace of Greek viticulture almost 4,000 years ago.

We believe that a good wine has its roots in the vineyard from healthy and natural vines. That’s whywe cultivated and produce strictly organic. Today we are considered as one of the leading organic wineries in Greece and we export 80% of our production all over the world.

All our wines are single varietal because we are convinced that this way, we can show our passion for quality and giveeach grape variety the attention that it deserves. We have been awarded several times atinternational wine competitions such as AWC Vienna and Millesime Bio.
