Nemea in Corinthia is the undisputed wine-country star. Here the ancient Greeks learned the art of grape-harvesting and wine-making and created the first wine in history. The grape variety is still the same to this day and it produces a red wine called "Agiorgitiko".

We start from Athens and drive for about an hour along the beautiful seaside highway to Corinth. The Isthmus of Corinth is a narrow strip of land that connects Central Greece with the Peloponnese , while the canal that has been opened in it connects the Saronic Gulf with the Gulf of Corinth . It is about 6 kilometers long and the narrowest point is where the Corinth Canal was built (1880-1893). It was a strategic point and for this reason a wall had already been built since ancient times (end of the 5th century BC), which had been preserved until the Byzantines ( Hexamilion ).
The wine-growing region of Nemea is one of the largest and most important PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) zones in Greece, stretching from the Argolis and Corinthia, with the main variety being Agiorgitiko. Seventeen villages define the zone and compose a unique area for wine, with different altitudes, type of soil and microclimate. As part of our wine experience programs, which are designed and led by expert oenologists, visitors have the opportunity to taste a fine selection of older and more recent vintages at our cellar or tasting hall. Includes tastings of four signature wines and a variety of cheese that showcase the two celebrated PDO regions of the Peloponnese, or highlight the blending of indigenous and locally grown international varieties. The tour is about 60 minutes long and costs 15€-19€/per person. May include other guests.
