Kontoura white grape variety

Kontoura white is a member of the Greek white grapes family and belongs to the family of Savvatiano  grape variety, a well-known grape variety perfectly acclimatized in Central Greece. The research that our agronomists did on our vineyards during the last 10 years concluded on that the vine clones we have, are unique compared to other Savvatiano clones in the area as well as in other regions in Greece. This fact combined with the unique "terroir" of Musses Valley gives us the chance to present you a unique wine, the "dio potamia" White!
