BOUTARI WINERY - SANTORINI

847 00 Ěegalohori Santorini

Winery Manager: Petros Vamvakousis


 

Santorini, one of the islands in the Cyclades group, formerly known as Kallisti, is a volcanic island whose porous ground and unique appearance were created by a series of volcanic eruptions many hundreds of thousands of years ago. The most striking feature of the island’s vineyards is the way the vines are cut back into a shape resembling a basket, a technique developed by the local vine-growers to protect the fruit from the unique meteorological conditions prevailing on the island. The main local varieties of grape are the Asyrtiko, the Athiri and the Aidani, from which Boutari produces its lively white wines, as well as the famous sweet red Visanto
The Boutari company was the first to open its winery to the public, in 1988. The goal was to draw attention to a unique wine-producing region of Greece. The winery has the capacity to produce 1,100,000 litres each year and has 190 oak barrels in which the wine is left to mature.

The Boutari winery in Santorini plays an important role in the viticultural, socio-economic and cultural development of the region. The company’s expertise, in combination with the experience, hard work and enthusiasm of the local vine-growers, has yielded unparalleled results, promoting the old, established varieties of grape and experimenting successfully with the planting of new foreign and Greek varieties. The Boutari winery in Santorini produces the following wines: Domaine Selladia, Asyrtiko, Santorini, Kallisti, Nychteri and Visanto.

The Boutari Winery in Santorini is open to the public. Visitors are offered:

  • Guided tours of the production facilities conducted in Greek, English, German,French and Italian
