Show Notes

Papagiannakos produces bright, expressive and delicious wines from local and international varieties. Perhaps the most compelling thing about Vassilis Papagiannakos philosophy is his dedication to single-varietal wines. Vassilis wants his wines to express precisely what the land of Attica will reflect in these grape varieties when carefully grown and vinified. Fascinating stuff with wonderful, world-class results.

This podcast was recorded with Vassilis at his award winning sustainable winery just outside Athens.
