About. Founded in 1979, Semeli Estate is a tribute to winemaking excellence. It combines the time-honored traditions of the vine with a forward-thinking approach. Its location on the slopes of the Nemea winemaking country allows it to harness the sunny Mediterranean climate, soils, and sunshine to produce wines of exceptional quality.
The Semeli Estate winery is in the heart of a privately-owned hillside vineyard covering 30 hectares and an additional 90 hectares cultivated by affiliated local winegrowers. The winery embodies its holistic approach to winemaking, utilizing a gravity-fed system that maintains the quality of the grapes by reducing oxidation throughout the winemaking process. This technique dates back to the pre-electric era and is regarded as a natural method of producing wine.
