Ktima Pavlidis was founded in 1998 by Christoforos Pavlidis, a marble businessman. An unexploited area of about 20 hectares, on the west side of the city, was the one that had caught his attention. It is a narrow valley surrounded amphitheatrically by three big mountains (Falakro, Menikio, and Pangeo); in the middle of them, the Aegean Sea.
This geographical modification provides the vineyards with a special microclimate, with cool winds during the night that prolong the ripening period and give the opportunity to reach the optimum maturity level slowly. And there is where it all started with the first 2 hectares of the vineyard of Kokkinogia.
