Maggel Estate
Intro
Maggel Estate is located in Kastoria, in a prime location next to Lake Orestiada, and is one of the most atmospheric and quality wineries in Western Macedonia.
Estate
Founded by the Maggel family, who turned their passion for wine into a model viticulture and winemaking unit, closely linking their production with the unique microclimate and beauty of the Kastoria landscape.
Vineyards
The estate's privately owned vineyards extend over an area with an ideal altitude (approximately 700-800 meters), where proximity to the lake moderates the extreme temperatures of Macedonia. The soil is rich and provides the necessary drainage for cultivating both Greek and international varieties. The focus is on Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Syrah, while the winery successfully experiments with Xinomavro, emphasizing low yield per stremma for maximum aroma concentration.
Tourism
Maggel Estate is one of the most attractive wine tourism destinations in Northern Greece. Visitors have the opportunity to tour the vineyards with a view of the lake, explore the production areas, and end up in the impressive cellar. The specially designed tasting area offers a unique experience of sampling the estate's labels (such as the "Maggel" and "Kastoria" series), often accompanied by local delicacies, making the visit a comprehensive initiation into the culture of Kastoria.
