Winery Description
Tselepos winery was established in 1989 with a vision to create high quality wines from the region of Mantinia, the birthplace of Amalia, the wife of Yiannis Tselepos – the winemaker. Since then they have evolved in a top level winery, producing wines in three different appellation zones of Greece, Mantinia, Nemea, and Santorini. Not being afraid to experiment they are pioneers in the production of new labels that highlight the aromatic character and complexity of the cultivated grape varieties. A visit to the winery will most certainly include a jeep ride in their vineyards – the largest of the area – something that we are very font of doing while we are there. During the tasting we have the opportunity to choose between a number of quality wines – they have 17 labels at the time of posting – but we are always left hungry for more.
