Northern Attica has always been the home of many winemakers; amongst them, the Bassis family holds a prominent position.
Ninety years of experience of Bassis family, both in the vineyard and in the winemaking process, establish the dynamic presence of the winery in the contemporary, competitive world of Greek wine.
The pioneer Anastasios Bassis founded the winery in 1925; his son Constantinos, a proponent of traditional winemaking, was his worthy successor, who, in turn, passed the winery down to his son, Tassos Bassis, a Bordeaux trained chemist-oenologist, who is currently carrying and cherishing the family tradition as the representative of its third consecutive generation of winemakers.
The vineyards are situated on the slopes of Mt. Parnitha
The privately owned vineyards that surround the winery are situated on the slopes of Mt. Parnitha, in the Avlona area. They are planted with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grape varieties from which we produce the estate’s wines.
The vines are cultivated in an ideal and beneficial microclimate, according to the strictest specifications of organic farming.
The grapes are harvested manually, and are expediently taken to the winery where they are processed in stainless steel tanks. The vines are VSP trained in rows and the yield does not exceed 1000kg/1000m2.
