Canava Roussos, the oldest on Santorini, was founded in 1836 to produce high quality wines uniquely expressing the characters of the numerous varieties of Thiran grapes. Decades of experience have passed from generation to generation so that, with consistency, continuity and absolute respect, expression is given to the island's art of wine-making. Today, Canava Roussos, faithfully adhering to the island's traditions, values modern technology and aims at creating wines with individual tastes and bouquets, selecting fruit of the highest quality from the island's select varieties
Our family created the museum out of its love and passion for tradition and wine. As fourth-generation winemakers, we are proud to continue the tradition of producing high quality wines. This endeavour was funded entirely by our family. The exhibits in the museum are presented in a certain order. Visitors will have the opportunity to taste four of the best wines that our winery produces today, in a specially designed wine-tasting area.
Boutari is one of the most awarded and most historical companies of quality wine making in Greece. Our winemakers started exploring winemaking opportunities on Santorini at the end of the 1980’s. For the past 30 years, our agronomists and winemakers brought great experience and innovative thinking to Santorini’s viticultural community. Santorini is a unique place for wine-making. We are very happy and proud to have played a leading role in its progress in viticulture, winemaking, and wine tourism. We are looking forward to welcoming you at our winery for an incredible wine journey!

Based upon the solid foundations of granddad Artemis’s winemaking tradition since 1952, the winery made a dynamic entry in contemporary winemaking in 2004, when grandson Artemis Karamolegos invested in the production facility and the privately owned vineyards, producing wine of protected designation of origin (PDO) for the first time. Almost 15 years later, our wines keep earning prizes at international and domestic competitions while our export activities continue to grow on a yearly basis: we are currently the third largest winery of Santorini in terms of production volume.
