Description

…an old farm and many vines surrounding it tell a story of a long tradition that no one in the family can remember, when the first vine was planted..and above all this, the area of Ancient Nemea, where viniculture continues non-stop for 3,500 years.

Since 1995, when the old traditional treading tank was replaced by a contemporary winery, following the demands of modern times, Palivou Estate began its new, extremely dynamic era. In a place, which has been characterized as Name of Origin for what is probably the most important Greek red variety AGIORGITIKO, Palivou Estate owns one of the two largest vineyards in the zone of NEMEA.

More than 300 hectares (area equal to 1000km) planted mostly with AGIORGITIKO, but also with Rodites, Malagousia, Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah can lavishly offer wines of quality names.
