Alpha Estate

About

''The expression of ALPHA ESTATE'S ecosystem throughout human's expertise and experience is the heart of our wine making philosophy'' This statement, coming from winemaker Angelos Iatridis and vine-grower Makis Mavridis pretty much sums the concept and the driving force behind the joint effort of two pioneers of wine growing and winemaking in Greece that selected the remote Amyndeon plateau, an area of PDO wines in North West Greece to establish and develop a state of the art vineyard driven winery. In the coolest wine region of Greece, at an altitude between 630 and 700 meters above sea level the two partners decided to invest in what is today one of the biggest investments in the Greek wine production over the last ten years. The area were today stands the 85ha privately owned block-vineyard was selected in the early 90's by Bordeaux educated and internationally trained enologist Angelos Iatridis, as the optimum wine growing and consequently winemaking region in Greece.
