Through time
Leading the way
From day one, the TSANTALI orientation was extrovert, even at the most harsh times during wars and political instability. In 1962 the first exports became a reality for the Tsantali family, opening to markets with significant Greek population as Germany, Belgium, Holland, Austria and USA. At the same time, the strategic investment in the revival of unique vineyards as in Mount Athos and Rapsani, offered to the family the added-value products able to attract the world’s attention.

In the vineyards
Old traditions are made new
The wine making roots are blended with state-of-the-art technology and science. That is our everyday job.
Precision agriculture – Certified organic cultivation
Each vineyard, as a living entity, demonstrates an astonishing diversity that demands for special care. Consciously and with the support of state-of-the art technology, we separate each vineyard in zones based on their special conditions and characteristics. That respect towards uniqueness, pays us back with the best performance while minimizing environmental impact. Precision agriculture is coupled with organic cultivation.
Trial cultivation
The blessed soil of our vineyards offers an exceptional occasion of trying cultivation of grape varieties not usually grown in Greece. Our team of experts studies the impact of the terroir, confident that soon astonishing results will come. At the same time, cultivation of indigenous varieties and clones of indigenous varieties are made.
