Fantastic afternoon experience! Our host was so friendly and had answers to all of our questions, and the wine was fantastic! We ended up buying a bottle, which was very affordable. My only regret is not getting a second bottle!

Such a very nice and fun thing to do and learn about how this winery has been growing and making wine in this area for years. The wine is wonderful and we learned a lot from this. We did visit outside of the actual wine season but still a great thing to do that is very affordable and interesting. We bought several bottles to drink while we are here in Greece as well. I think it is better than larger wineries I’ve visited during to the personal touch.
Title this review Had a lovely time at this winery. Vineyard visit and comprehensive wine tasting from knowledgable source. Well presented.
We had a lovely time at the winery tasting 5 wines. The host was very friendly and knowledgeable about the wines they produce. The vineyard is remote from the winery and there is a separate tour if you want to do this. We also made a friend with nuisa (?) the owners dog !
My partner and I went to a private tour and wine tasting at Zeginis. Chrysanthi was amazing, very intelligent, very knowledgeable and made us feel very welcome. We had an amazing experience and bought wine after to bring back home with us! We would definitely recommend, extremely great value for money and hospitality and service was worth every cent.
lovely young lady greeted us with a smile and was patient with our questions on understanding the wine process. let's us stay extra and mingle with the other people in our group. great experience.
We had an exceptional experience and enjoyed delicious wine. The winemaker warmly welcomed my partner and me, sharing her extensive knowledge of winemaking with enthusiasm and expertise.
This is a family-run winery where third generation now is active in the business. All the tours are private and you get a really good insight of the process from the vineyards to finished wines. They drive us by car to the wineyards, showed us the winery and at the end gave us a taste of their wines. Can absolute recommend this winery!
Your was amazing. The host was very knowledgeable and passionate about the subject. Learned a lot about the wine and the history of the marathon area!
Lovely tour and great history behind the winery, excellent range of wine for the tasting and yummy cheese and pie to go with it.
A beautiful location, with some amazing wines, and some very welcoming and talented staff, who are more than happy to answer questions.
Our experience at Zeginis was excellent. Chrysanthi was an amazing attentive host. We highly recommend a visit in case you are in the area. The wines are delicious, especially their large selection of White wine, all made from local grapes. Thank you for a lovely time!
The tour guide (Chrysanthi)'s knowledge of the grapes, matched with insight into the family's making of wine and the overall Greek traditions in regards to wine, made each moment insightful and memorable. Then came seeing the vineyards, which in of itself was as magical as any ancient artifact of Greece. The tasting was fantastic, with each white, rose, and red wine paired well with her own family's locally grown vegetables and fruits. If you are in Greece, make sure you visit this winery. An amazing experience, one that will assure the revolution of Greek wines becomes a global phenomenon built on family values and traditions.
Great visit of vines and the domain. We saw the whole process from the grape to the vinification. The wine is of great quality, we bought all the ones we tasted
We had a brilliant tour of the facilities from Chrysanthe, seeing the vineyards as well as what happens once the grapes have been harvested. The wine itself is gorgeous and reasonably priced. Would strongly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to see the best wine Greece has to offer. It was much better than the other restaurant wine we’ve had in Athens and Marathon. We were a group of 9.
The owners of the winery took us around to walk amongst the vines as well as taste the product of their efforts. The family was welcoming and gracious and the tour was both informative and delicious. I recommend Chrysanthi Zeginis and her family's vineyard as a fantastic destination for any family. We absolutely loved our time there.
Very warm welcome in a nice setting, explanations and very interesting visits. Followed by a tasting with beautiful discoveries about both the wines and the dishes we were offered. The person who welcomed us was able to sublimate this very good time because of his knowledge and kindness. I recommend ++++
Super address with very nice wine tasting. Be sure to taste the rose wine! It's exceptionally good. Very friendly welcome and we have gained some historical knowledge.
Very interesting visit and very good tasting. The explanations are very clear, very nice walk in the area. We highly recommend this visit to discover the wine and walk around.
Guided tour of the vineyard and afterwards a tasting. Very friendly reception, top wines of which two have received an international medal and super tasty snacks. When we were waiting for our taxi, the lady saw that it was taking a long time and she eventually took us away herself. Great!
