Boutari (Mantinia) – Domaine 4Epoches
The Boutari company was founded in 1879 by Ioannis Boutaris and is one of the historic wineries in Greece. It operates six wineries in Greece in some of the most important wine-producing areas (Naoussa, Goumenissa, Crete, Santorini, Mantinia and Attica) and one in the South of France.
The broad variety of its products, which include more than 40 labels, cover an extensive range of preferences by consumers around the world.
Awards such as the International Winery of the Year 2010 award, earned for the 13th time, and the European Winery of the Year 2008 award testify to the exceptional work being carried out by the company’s wine-making team and the emphasis it places on quality.
The philosophy of the Boutari company is to promote wine culture in Greece by bringing consumers closer to wines through a broad range of high-quality wines for every occasion.
In the international field, the company’s goal is to be one of the leading ambassadors of Greek wines, highlighting Greek grape varieties and the unique locations where top-quality wines are produced.
The Boutari (Mantinia) – Domaine 4Epoches Winery is located in the historic area of Mantinia in the Peloponnese. It is where in 1991, the company established and expanded its presence in the area through the historic Cambas winemaker, which came to be included in the Boutari Group.
As in other wine-producing areas, so it was that Boutari’s contribution here was definitive. It contributed to the preservation of one of the major Greek white varieties, Moschofilero, which it promoted and made known the world over.
The 70-hectare, privately owned Boutari vineyard is located at an altitude of 650 metres. The majority of the land is planted with the Moschofilero variety. The Gewürztraminer and Chardonnay varieties are also grown, along with some others still under experimentation.
The Boutari (Mantinia) – Domaine 4Epoches winery produces Moschofilero Boutari, 4 Epoches (Seasons), Ilida, Skin Contact and Ode Boutari.
