Founded in 2015 by brothers Dimitris and Nikos Papadopoulos, Papadopoulos Viticulture is the culmination of a shared passion for wine, grounded in studies of oenology and natural viticulture. Nestled at the foothills of Mount Olympus in the historic PDO region of Rapsani, the winery was born from a vision to revive abandoned, centuries-old vineyard parcels and restore the area's rich winemaking heritage.

Working on steep, isolated slopes where ancient vines thrive in the cooling Aegean breeze, the brothers farm using gentle, traditional methods that encourage biodiversity, allowing native flora and the vineyard ecosystem to coexist naturally. The result is exceptionally healthy fruit that requires minimal intervention in the winery. Wines are produced through spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, without temperature control, and with only minimal additions of sulphur. Every bottle is an expression of Rapsani's distinctive microclimate, rugged terroir and the remarkable character of its old vines.

Central to their philosophy is the knowledge passed down through generations of local growers. Long-time custodians of the vineyards — including 90-year-old Mr. Takis, 83-year-old Mr. Christos and 74-year-old Ms. Kaiti — continue to share their invaluable experience, ensuring that traditional viticultural practices remain at the heart of every vintage. Together, they are preserving not only exceptional vineyards but also the living history of one of Greece's most revered wine-growing regions.

Grown on the steep slopes of Rapsani at the foothills of Mount Olympus, the 2025 SRTK captures the freshness and mineral character that make Assyrtiko one of Greece's most distinctive white varieties. Sourced from organically farmed, low-yield vineyards and crafted with a minimal-intervention philosophy, the wine is fermented to preserve its purity and vibrant expression of place.

Aromas of lemon zest, white peach and citrus blossom lead into a textured palate with bright natural acidity, saline minerality and a long, refreshing finish. A precise and elegant expression of both the 2025 vintage and the unique terroir of Rapsani. Perfect with freshly shucked oysters, grilled prawns, ceviche, chargrilled octopus or simply grilled white fish with lemon and herbs. Its vibrant acidity and saline minerality also make it an excellent match for feta, goat's cheese and Mediterranean vegetable dishes.
