Last day of harvest for our Zakynthino grapes today!!! Photos coming up later on...!!!

Total eclipse of the Brits during the last two days... We were invaded m by Swedes and Dutch (and an Austrian couple). We also had our first French visitors for this season. "Southern Plateau" and "Animus Vitis" were the stars and sold extremely well...

It never amazes me how every year around the 25th Aug there is this very subtle change in the weather and you just know the summer is in to the home run for yet another year. It also coincides with harvest time and the vines you've lovingly nurtured since spring are now only leaves - quite melancholic! The upside? The lovely wine must in the tanks about to ferment!!

I feel that some time warp as moved us to the Aegean! The wind is still raging, and we're keeping fingers crossed that as the sun goes down, so will the wind die down. The chilling machine is now on, the press & tanks are all connected and we are raring to go as soon as the sun sets (and the wasps buzz off).

Good morning, it's battle stations today! As of 7:30 in the morning we are harvesting Yakoumakata zones C, B2 and B1 under a VERY nasty north eastern hot wind. The vines are very happy to be relieved from their load. We'll upload lots of photos later on...

Getting ready for harvest... Every morning we get a nasty hot northeasterly wind, very dangerous for fires. We hope it will change to a nice westerly Zefyros on Friday. The grapes are almost ripe, hanging from the vines as if asking to be picked...

You know you're doing a good job when you have a Swedish wine journalist congratulate you for your efforts with the "Zakynthino" variety. Both "Southern Plateau" and "Animus Vitis" passed with flying colours...

I'm at the 'helm' today as Yango is in on his way to Athens (see below) I'm awaiting the arrival of a group of sailors, that despite no taxis being available, have found a way and are on their way from Sami to eagerly try the Metaxas Wines!

Editor's Note: You may know wine importer Terry Theise from his excellent book, Reading Between the Wines. Or you may know him from seeing his name on the back of a bottle. Or you may not know him yet, in...

The last few weeks have been extremely busy, mainly with work in the vineyard. The vines are thriving! After spending many Hot hours in the vineyard it's a great reward to receive praise like that of friend Liesl-Anne below. It gives you courage to stay out that little bit longer & nurture those extra few plants knowing that the end product is being well appreciated and that we must be doing something right!
