Ktima Biblia Chora is the brainchild of two talented winemakers, Vangelis Gerovassiliou and Vassilis Tsaktsarlis. In unison, both men earmarked a promising site for a new vineyard in 1998 and went on to create today’s established Greek wine estate.
It is here, on the slopes of the Pangeon Mountain range in Kokkinochori, Kavala that they shaped Ktima Biblia Chora, a state-of-the-art winery encircled by its own privately owned, organic vineyard which now stretches over 65 ha.
