The story of the Lykos family winery goes way back to the time when father now grandfather- Lykos used grapes from his own and other local vineyards to make traditional white, red and rose wines in a stone winepress to complement the exquisite delicacies served in the family\u2019s tavern. His son Apostolis, the heart and soul of the family and a true culinary artiste, made a dynamic entrance into the field of quality wine making, establishing a modern and efficient winery in the backyard of the family\u2019s renowned tavern, realizing his father\u2019s enduring vision of producing brand name bottled wines in family owned facilities. With Evia steadily developing into a vintner\u2019s paradise and new wineries emerging and flourishing throughout the island, the Lykos winery remains faithful to the tradition of uniquely matching fine wines with Greek culinary delights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
