The Greek winery "Domaine Spiropoulos" has been in existence since 1860 and its 200 hectares of vineyards are situated at an altitude of 650 metres on the Mantinia plateau in the north of the Peloponnese. Exactly on this place, viticulture was already practised in the ancient times. This is proven by a wine container made of solid marble with a capacity of over 1,000 litres, found in the winery cellar during restoration work, which is over 2,000 years old. At the beginning of the 1990s, the three brothers Nondas, Yannis and Robert reorganised the winery and are now fully committed to organic farming in accordance with EU directives. They cultivate the local grape varieties Agiorgitiko, Glikerithram, Lagorthi, Mavrudi and the appellation variety Moschofilero, as well as international varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc. Worth mentioning are the OPAP white wine "Orino" (single variety from Moschofilero) and the red country wine "Porfyros" (Agiorgitiko, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot and matured up to 16 months in barrique).

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
