Mercouri Winery

The wineries of Greece were poorly regarded for many years, but this is changing fast, and the Peloponnese has led this turnaround. This local winery is well-renowned and has been producing quality wines since the mid 19th-century. It is a working estate with beautiful buildings set in gardens. Many of its wines use recognizable grape varieties, but the wonderful red, Domaine Mercouri, is based on the dark grape Mavrodaphne that is unique to this region.
