About Kontozisis Organic Vineyards

Kontozisis Organic Vineyards, nestled in Karditsa, Thessaly's rustic heartland, thrives amidst the landscape dubbed Greece's "bicycle capital" and the birthplace of the remarkable Limniona red grape. Situated on the slopes of Mount Agrafa, the winery spans two distinct terroirs between Kanalia and Dafnospilia.

Since 1991, Kontozisis has championed certified organic agriculture and vinification, pioneering organic certification in Greece. His steadfast dedication to sustainability underscores his unwavering commitment. Despite initial reluctance within Karditsa's local market towards organic practices, Kontozisis steadfastly pursued chemical-free farming and the crafting of honest, natural wines.
