The Greek winery "Ktima Spiropoulos" is located in Arkadia in the Mantinia area in the centre of the island of Peloponnese. It was founded in 1860 by the Spiropoulos family, and viticulture has been practised on this very spot since ancient times. This is evidenced by a 2,000-year-old wine container made of solid marble found in the wine cellar. In 1994, the business was reorganised by Epaminondas Spiropoulos. His son Apostolos, who had studied agronomy in Greece and oenology in the USA, took over the business in 2001 and built a second winery in Korinthia in the Nemea area. He handed over the business to his sister Konstantina Spyropoulou.
The Wine lexicon helps me to keep up to date and refresh my knowledge. Thank you for this Lexicon that will never end in terms of topicality! That's what makes it so exciting to come back often.
