Its wines, famed throughout the known world bearing the place names Toroni, Acanthus and Olympus, and referred to in many texts of ages past, were the forerunners of the present-day wines from the Slopes of Mt. Meliton region, now recognized as VDQS wines.
For centuries now the land of Chalkidiki has been verdant with vineyards and olive groves. Giannis Carras had the idea of reviving this area around 1960, deciding to utilize all the potential of the valuable dowry that nature had bestowed on the unique Slopes of Mt. Meliton. The first vineyards and olive groves began to be planted at the beginning of 1965, while work also commenced then on the innovative tourism complex which is associated with the Domaine Porto Carras, creating a real revolution in the hotel and wine-making sector in Greece at that time. Since the beginning of 2000 the entire complex has been in the hands of the Technical Olympic Group of Companies and its Chairman, Mr. Constantine Stengos. |
