The selected position of the winery within the Domaine's vineyard facilitates in innumerable ways the rapid preparation of grapes, avoiding once and for all the oxidation which is frequently caused by timely transportation of the grapes to other areas. The ideal day for commencing the harvest is also carefully chosen so that ripeness in terms of flavour always coincides with ripeness in terms of aroma.

| The wines are vinified with skill and care within the winery's state-of-the-art facilities by experienced enologists who are students of the great Emile Peynaud. |
 |
| Since 2000, the Technical Olympic Group of Companies has assisted dynamically in modernizing the winery. In the "must room" the hydraulic presses operate with electronic accuracy. The iron tanks have made way for twin-wall stainless steel ones and fermentation is now fully thermally controlled. |
 |
| At the same time, in the winery's air-conditioned cellar authentic French oak barrels, which are replaced every year, ensure ideal ageing conditions for the leading red wines and in particular Chateau Carras, Syrah and Malagouzia. |
 |
| Mid-term investment plans for renovating the Domaine Porto Carras winery include an immediate makeover of the area accessible to the public and the wine-tasting hall, as well as organizing an unforgettable tour around the vineyard's
grounds. |
