Elias Zacharias is the leading mind of Zacharias Vineyards. He was born in 1944 in Leontio, a beautiful and pictorial village situated in Nemea, and he comes from a multi-member family of farmers.
His love for agriculture and nature forced Ilias to study in the Agricultural
University of Athens. After his graduation, he got back to Nemea, where he
started to work intensively at Nemea's vineyards. Staying true to his convictions,
he still believes that good quality wine starts at the vineyards, not the
winery.
He is undoubtedly one of the few people who have shown such interest and have
worked so systematically with the vines and the wine of the region. His thirty
year experience has put him in the position to put into practice the most
innovative methods of wine production in conjunction with sheer respect to
both the grape and the environment.
