ANTONOPOULOS VINEYARDS

«With big dreams come great responsibilities». This was the vision of Konstantinos Antonopoulos, founder of Antonopoulos K. Vineyards. It was Christmas of 1983, when he initiated the cultivation of the vineyard in the region of Vasiliko in Achaia, a dream to come true. He chose the location of the vineyard because of its altitude, northerly orientation, the natural protection from wind and particularly the clay soil with sufficient underground water. He planted both classic international and local grape varieties. The vision of Antonopoulos K. Vineyards has always been the exploration of the vast, untapped potential of this diverse landscape, especially the mountainous region of Achaia and the unique winemaking opportunities it presented. We continue this vision by investing in local high-altitude vineyards, believing in the soil, loving and respecting our vines and having passion for crafting wines that evoke the land. Our vineyards are located in the mountainous region of Achaia, at an altitude of 750-900m, fifty kilometers from the mountainous village of Kalavrita with the celebrated ski resort. This land lays on a peak where the three mountains of Panachaiko, Chelmos and Erymanthos meet, providing a unique exposure.
