Chardonnay Logos
Logos Chardonnay is Zafeirakis’ cleaner, sharper answer to a category that too often leans on oak and volume. This is Chardonnay with tension, not makeup. It keeps the grape recognizable, but strips it back to freshness, mineral line, and clarity. For buyers, that makes it a useful bottle. Familiar enough to sell, distinct enough not to disappear into a generic white-wine lineup.
The fruit comes from Paleomylos in Tyrnavos, in Thessaly, at 150 to 200 metres altitude. Sandy-clay soils with high flint concentration, a dry warm climate, and limited rainfall shape a style that feels focused rather than broad. The vineyards are farmed organically and biodynamically, and the relatively young vines help keep the wine lively, bright, and commercially flexible.
In the cellar, the handling stays disciplined. The grapes are chilled before a light pressing, and fermentation takes place with spontaneous yeast in stainless steel. That matters because the wine stays precise and direct. On a list, Logos works well by the glass, with seafood and lighter dishes, or as a smart alternative for drinkers who want Chardonnay without the heavy-handed version.

The producer
In Tyrnavos, at the foot of Mount Olympus, Ktima Zafeirakis has become one of the clearest modern references for Greek wine with identity. The estate is led by Christos Zafeirakis, a fourth-generation winemaker who studied oenology in Athens and continued his training in Turin and Milan before returning home in 2005 to plant his first organic vineyard. That return did not produce a nostalgic family continuation. It produced something much more relevant: a winery with roots, but also with vision… Read more
