The Etate
At an altitude of 650 meters, the local Boutari vineyard is located in Mantineia, Peloponnese, with an area of 310 acres.
Our History
Our winery, in Mantineia, Peloponnese, is located in Milia, 8 km from Tripoli. It is one of the oldest organized wineries in the region and its presence has contributed to the preservation and expansion of viticulture in the PDO Mandineia zone.
Mantineia’s connection with viticulture is as old as its history, a fact confirmed by archaeological findings in the area and of course by the “vine of Pausanias”, probably the oldest vineyard in the world. As in other important wine zones, the contribution of the Boutari winery was decisive. It preserved from extinction one of the main Greek white varieties, Moschofilero, from which PDO Mantineia is produced, and highlighted its potential to the fullest, making it known around the world.
Varietal composition
The largest area of this vineyard is covered by the native variety “Moschofilero”, accompanied by the Gewurztraminer and Chardonnay varieties. In addition, there are some other Greek and foreign varieties under experimentation, adding variety and interest to the vineyard.

The winery is not open to the public. For more information please contact us at info@boutari.gr
