Savatiano Masterclass at Domaine Papagiannakos

Founded in 1919 and located in Markopoulo, Attica, just 30 kilometres from the Athens city centre, Domaine Papagiannakos is the first bioclimatic winery in Greece. The family-owned vineyards are planted mainly with the Savatiano variety, alongside other Greek indigenous varieties such as Malagouzia, Assyrtiko, and Agiorgitiko, cultivated since the family’s third generation assumed ownership.

The Attican terroir — limestone soils, mild winters, and hot dry summers assisted by the sea breeze — creates ideal conditions for dry white wines with intense mineral aromas and a perfectly balanced palate. Cultivated in these sun-kissed Attican vineyards near Athens for over 4,000 years, Savatiano is Greece’s most historic indigenous white grape, from non-irrigated vines averaging 60 years of age.

Domaine Papagiannakos wines have earned a multitude of awards and hold a distinguished place on the list of the finest wines exported from Greece.
