About 100 hundred years ago, in 1924, Kostas Semertzidis, grandfather of winemaker Iordanis Michailidis, arrived as a refugee from Asia Minor, and started producing wine in Kyrgia, Drama. The small family winery started growing when Simos Michailidis took over. He extended the vineyard into the area of Lagotopos in 1970 and laid the foundations for the modernization of production.
The third generation, namely Iordanis Michailidis, took over in 2004, aiming to create an ultramodern winery and to produce quality wines that incorporate in the best possible way modern winemaking techniques with local tradition.
