George Skouras was born in Argos, and in 1980 went to study Agriculture at the University of Dijon, in Burgundy, France. On graduating from Dijon with a degree in oenology, he started gathering experience in many classic wine-producing regions of France, Italy, and Greece.
The creation of Domaine Skouras materialized in 1986. Initially, the small wine-making facility was in Pyrgela, a small village on the outskirts of Argos. The next step was the creation of a boutique winery in the Nemea Appellation area, in the village of Gimno.
The establishment of the final winery in Malandreni, also in the Nemea Appellation, took place in 2004. The new infrastructure increased capacity and technical capabilities. For the Domaine Skouras team, technology is all about control and observation, allowing for minimal intervention on the wines, if and when it is needed – and only to the requisite extent.
Μegas Oenos
The story of Domaine Skouras started in 1986, with an emblematic wine, Megas Oenos, which became synonymous with George Skouras. Back then, Megas Oenos was a pioneering blend of Agiorgitiko and Cabernet Sauvignon. Today Megas Oenos is one of the wines with a consistent presence in the world of European wine, with a proven aging ability rivaled only by very few Greek wines.
