Déjeuner en Vigne
Déjeuner en Vigne
An artist, his studio manager, his gallerist and a writer, film director and DJ. That's all one needs to turn a four course meal in an experience never to forget.
Drywall
Restauration of the drywall
Jesus was mocked as having claimed that he would destroy the Temple and raise it again in three days. We kind of did it! It took 2 days (and a digger) to tear down the old vineyard’s (Yerambellos) dry wall and 3 days (and 12 Syrian builders) to rebuild it (more or ...
Propagation
Propagation
A new experience: propagating our vines. Some of the cuttings during the winter pruning were buried 50cm deep. When we dug them out they had nicely rooted. Last week we potted them and now most of them are in leaf. We will nurse the babies until after the summer drought and plant them in the ...
Interview in Taste Magazine
Interview in Taste Magazine
Food and wine journalist Florentia Kythreotou wrote about Yerambellos in Philelephteros' Taste Magazine. Based on an interview, in it she wrote about the difficulties an artist and a corporate lawyer encountered when moving countries and reviving a vineyard. Very interesting is the question about the relationship between art and wine. Finally she ...

The Sound of Clinging Bottles
Bottling our first vintage
Some say wine bottles contain more philosophy than books. Others think wine is bottled poetry. For us it’s just beautiful to see the sweat of our hard labour and the fruit of Marinos’s knowledge stacked against the wall. A few more months before the corks can start popping.
Making Decisions
Making Decisions
Autumn is the season of goodbyes; of disposal of emotional rubbish with the burning of the leaves. And of gratitude for what nature is offering us. Our wine is on its way to maturity. And Nelion's oenologist Marinos Ioannou is as enthusiastic as we are.
Harvest 2019
We couldn't really call this our first harvest, but certainly our first successful one. In 2018 the crop was almost entirely destroyed by downy mildew. Being new vignerons, we didn't really know how to prevent this. It was a very hard lesson!
This year we had more luck and more experience. With the help of some ...
