Tetramythos Winery

M20 Winery
In this small winery, each bottle of wine is created with respect for local heritage and the vineyard. The micro-vinifications from privately-owned vineyards, planted on slopes and small vineyard plots, aim to highlight the local identity and the unique qualitative characteristics of the region’s varieties.
Aithra Spirits
The organic distillery Aithra Spirits, based in Patra, is an innovative effort by young people, who are the first in Greece to produce certified organic alcoholic beverages without added sugar.
Lianos Olive Oil
Lianos is a family-owned olive oil company that has been passed down through four generations. With decades of experience and the finest olives of the Mediterranean, harvested from local groves at the foothills of Panachaiko Mountain, they produce premium-quality extra virgin olive oil.

Band from Ikaria island
This year, at the harvest feast, an amateur band from Ikaria will take us on a journey! With roots deeply connected to Ikarian tradition and the island’s spirit, these musicians play and sing, bringing to life tunes and songs that carry the energy and joy of Ikaria. Their goal is simple and essential: to unite people through music, celebration, and dance, just as they do at the island’s festivals. With respect for tradition and an authentic, spontaneous vibe, they invite us to surrender to the rhythm, sing along, and celebrate together.
