About Nikolou Winery
The Nikolou family has made wine in Koropi since 1875, in a stone-built Mesogeian house with a cool underground cellar that old Greek films have used as a set. The family revived Savatiano without pine resin, and Botanic, its sparkling retsina, was the first made by the traditional method. The winery is open year-round: a visit brings a short film on the family, a tour of the cellar and sparkling-wine production, then one of three tastings with appetisers, from a Standard flight to seven expressions of Savatiano. Our advice: choose the Savatiano tasting to understand Mesogeia’s own grape, and book through the form on the winery’s site.
