About the Winery
Oenops
Founded in 2015, Oenops, meaning ‘wine face’, is a pioneering project whose mastermind is the talented winemaker Nikos Karatzas. Following the micro-négociant system, Oenops aims to produce high quality, great value wines. Rather than owning vineyards, the company sources grapes from selected plots across Greece’s best terroirs, with a focus on cool-climate sites and old vines of indigenous varieties.
At the core of the company’s philosophy is the close partnership with ambitious growers who share a same sustainability-focused approach. Oenops mission is to source great fruit and craft wines that fully express its quality and sense of time and place. By using simple methods, led by the profile of the grapes rather than by any winemaking protocols, the company has built a range of authentic, fruit-forward wines that bring out the best of each variety, terroir and style.
The team tastes meticulously and tailors its approach to each plot and variety, based on the core philosophy and ethos. By vinifying each plot and variety separately the team has grown an understanding of the specificity of each vineyard and of the work done each year, in turn allowing for improvement in each vintage.
A repertoire of indigenous grape varieties, such as Malagousia, Assyrtiko, Vidiano, Roditis, Xinomavro, Limniona, and Mavroudi, is expressed through different styles of Greek varietal wines and in labels that have gained widespread recognition, among consumers and critics alike.
What the team at Oenops strives for is, ultimately, to produce tasteful, elegant wines that work as perfect companions to every meal and special occasion.

Strawberries, raspberries, raw mushrooms and lemon leaves on the nose. It’s medium-bodied, crunchy and bright, with tasty berry fruit and lightly grippy tannins. Try from 2024.

Three indigenous varieties get together and Oenops just seems to be the master Drama blender to tie them all together. They being xinomavro, limniona and mavroudi come one, come all for the easiest access in northeastern (Macedonian) Greek reds. The 2021 gifted ease, simplicity and apt resourcefulness but this ’22 moves forward, ahead and into another space. Perhaps a step towards rapture with the vintage lens opening and allowing more light, the truss of fruits all sharing the same even levelled platform. More layers to peel away, acids in synch and a spice masala marking territory at every step. Complexity is a beautiful thing when clarity, purity and focus are all aligned. Drink 2024-2027.
