VISITS
THE WINERY EXPERIENCE
Just 127km – one hour from Athens, on the road from Corinth to Nafplio and Tripoli, in the Nemea region, lies the largest vineyard in the Balkans, the “Bordeaux of Southeastern Europe”, with 25,000 acres of vines.
800 meters from the imposing archaeological site of Ancient Nemea is the Palivou Estate, a small and welcoming winery built within the privately owned vineyard.
The best way to get to know the wine production process with the famous Nemea name is to follow us on a route that passes through the vineyard and the viticulture, where it all begins, continues to the winery and evolves into the estate’s aging room with its 300 oak barrels of French and American oak.
The most enjoyable part of your visit to our winery is the tasting of the estate’s award-winning wines from native and international varieties.
Opening hours
October to March | Monday – Sunday 09.00- 17.00
April to September | Monday – Sunday 10.00- 18.00
