KIKONES ESTATE

Established in the spring of 2004 by local Agronomist-Enologist Melina Tassou, «Kikones» is proudly the first winery founded in Rhodopi in the far northeast corner of continental Greece. Melina brings extensive winemaking experience to the region, through her formal training from the Bordeaux Faculte d' enologie and vintage work across France and Australia. The winery is located 5 km from Komotini (Department of Thrace) and covers an area of 650m2, with climate controlled vinification rooms, barrel aging and automated bottling processes. With a particular focus on wine quality assurance, all machinery and processes employed in the production of Kikones wines engage both traditional and modern winemaking techniques.
