The beginning of the family’s wine history is placed at the beginning of the 20th century, in Koukloutzas, an area near Smyrna. There George Argyrakis, the great-grandfather of the family, a horse trader , cultivated his own vines, specifically the batiki and fileri varieties, and made his own wine. With the destruction of Smyrna in 1922, his family left for Thessaloniki and settled in the area of Evosmos (Koukloutzas). But the uprooting did not eradicate his love for wine, which he continued to make in small quantities. The presence of wine at the family table influenced his grandson, George Argyrakis, who grew up studying chemistry and oenology. In fact, for 14 years, from 1983 to 1997, he was the oenologist of Boutaris Oenopetiki. When he retired, he started working as a chemist at the State Chemistry Department, but his involvement with wine did not stop, as he continued to produce it on his own, having bought a vineyard in Trilofos, Imathia. This unquenchable wine flame was fanned when his two sons, Konstantinos and Spyros, came to the fore. Raised on the stories of their father, they were oriented from the first moment to wine. Konstantinos studied oenology and Spyros studied civil engineering, which he complemented with a master’s degree in bioclimatic wineries.
