Description
Biodynamic Wine
"A wine property, like any other agricultural property, is considered a living organism. The cultivated soil is not just a medium for the vines, but a living environment and a source of energy for the plant, just like its above ground environment. In this way the vine - a medium - creates and nourishes the terroir in this inhabited, living environment surrounding its roots. These exchanges between the biology of the soil and the root and leaf system allow the expression of terroir in the grapes. Flavours are enhanced."
In the town of Tyrnavos, in the PGI Tyrnavos area, located in the region of Thessaly in Central Greece resides Domaine Zafeirakis where the Zafeirakis family has been practicing viticulture for more than 100 years.
Christos Zafeirakis, the 4th generation winemaker of the family after his studies and various stages in Italy, returned to Tyrnavos and planted his first organic vineyard in 2005.
“Love, Knowledge, and Respect to Tradition are the core elements for the creation of our wines as our goal is to deliver the expression of our vineyards, its aromas and flavor in your glass" Christos Zafeirakis.
