Biodynamic Wine

Built at the foot of Paiko, Goumenissa, with a population of 4500 inhabitants, is only 65 km from Thessaloniki. The town was created during the first years of the Turkish rule with the amalgamation of agricultural settlements around the powerful monastery of Panagia. The area developed into an important wine and sericulture center. From 1922 to 1925, a significant number of refugees from Eastern Romilia (Northern Thrace) and Pontus settled in Goumenissa, who enriched the local tradition with new elements. Among them is the Tatsis family. Far away in time and place, the involvement of the Tatsis family with vines and wine began, which originates from Ano Bodeno in Eastern Romilia, a wine-growing region for centuries. In 1924, the refugee grandparents chose the also wine-growing Goumenissa as a place of settlement.
