Karavitakis Winery Manolis Karavitakis, a chemist-oenologist, began work on his family’s vineyard in 1998, an effort that led to the development of a modern winery. The venture is now headed by his son, Nikos, also a chemist. Greek and imported grape varieties are cultivated at the family-owned vineyard. The winery is situated between vineyards and olive groves, at the top of the Kolybari area’s hills. The winery’s Elia Blend, fusing Rodanos varieties (Syrah, Grenache, Carignan) and left to mature for between 11 and 14 months in French and American oak barrels, is a standout wine. Kompsos Liatiko, a fruity wine with a light red colour and delightful sweet-spice touches, may be enjoyed chilled alongside cheese platters or pastas with tomato sauces. The Karavitakis Winery’s kLIMA VIDIANO, a stylish, sophisticated white wine made with the local Vidiano grape variety, is matured in 500-liter oak barrels, porcelain amphorae and stainless steel tanks. It is an ideal wine for seafood meze and fish dishes. The winery is open for visits during operating hours as well as upon arrangement. English-language tours are also available. The winery plans to launch a restaurant in 2024.
