Winemaking has a tradition on Paros that dates back at least 5,000 years to the Cycladic era.
The Venetians also produced wine on the island, and Paros is the island where the Monemvasia grape was kept alive when it died out everywhere else.
Established in 1910, the Moraitis Winery is now in the family’s fourth generation.
In sandy clay-rich soil on 10 hectares are vineyards growing grapes native to Paros, some well-known and some rare.
