La Tour Melas is a young and dynamic winery
which creates well made, textural and interesting wines in
Achinos.
The eponymous tower overlooks and guards the vines that produce
wine in its name, all managed with biodynamic and organic
techniques. Kyros Melas planted his 11ha of vineyards, on slopes
that run down towards the expanse of the Aegan Sea, with Merlot,
Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot vines imported from France.
These vines are hand-picked, then fermented and turned into wine
with as little intervention as possible through the underground
gravity flow winery of the property. To finish, each wine is also
hand bottled creating a truly artisanal process.
