Viotia

The cultivations in the vineyards of Viotia include both native and international cultivars. With the plain of Thiva (Thebes) as the hub, Savvatiano and Roditis are cultivated in deep, limey-clayey soils, and their yields primarily go toward the production of table wines and Retsina. On the cool, northeastern and northwestern slopes of Mount Kitheronas—on the border between Attiki (Attica) and Viotia—a spate of native and foreign cultivars thrive in modern, linear plantations. Mouchtaro is a local red variety the producers of the region have tried to revive with very encouraging results.
