Legends, traditions and history of the region are testimony to the depth of its vineyards’ roots, the strength of the relationship of the vineyards with its people. The grapevine is a symbol of Pitsilia, a symbol of the daily struggle for survival, a symbol of the generations it has raised. Through the passing of time, the grapevine has brought mindsets closer, determined lifestyles, and created culture. The southern slopes of Madari are a rugged, rocky, mountainous region, offering however the right circumstances for viniculture. One will mainly encounter Xynisteri as far as white grape varieties are concerned, and Mavro as well as Maratheftiko when it comes to the red ones. Both the microclimate and the soil are favorable elements to the excellent, harmonious maturing of the fruit, the showcasing of varietal virtues, and the creation of wines with depth and intensity. Ekfraseis Winery uses these varieties through grapes cultivated in proprietary vineyards which are scattered in a large range of these slopes. It also cultivates famous, international varieties which are used to make wines with a varietal identity and distinct elements of the terroir. At Ekfraseis Winery we have established an enthusiastic team, composed of young people with a strong passion, persistence, and will to create while focusing on the quality and respect for nature. This, combined with the experience gained after each crop, results in the production of high-quality wines with style and finesse.

Our enthusiasm, knowledge, inspiration, and everlasting restlessness can be easily detected in our products. The collection is completed by the winemaker’s wine inspirations, where the artistic approach to the science of vinification easily stands out. Our wines have won recognition and respect in a rather short period.

They are the award for our efforts and encourage us to move on toward our targets and become better.
