Rhodes, Greece
The island
of Rhodes, also known as the emerald of the Aegean
Sea, is famous not only for its natural beauties and
its tourist attractions but for its wines as well.
Thanks to the wine loving Italians – they inhabited
the island between 1912 and 1945 – grape growing
and winemaking have flourished on the island ever since.
The name Emery originates from Emeric D’Amboise
(French origin), Great Magistrate of Rhodes, 1503-1512.
Emery was established in Rhodes in 1923.
Over the years the name of our company has become synonymous
with paramount respect for taste and tradition and
quality wine making. Today, our winery is one of the
largest in Greece. Originally, we produced alcohol.
Later we began supplying other businesses with it as
well and at the end of the Second World War we started
producing various fruit distillates.
In 1966 we began producing wine.
In 1974, in the village of Embona in Rhodes (altitude
700m), we built a modern winery, which is – to
this day – one of the largest in Greece. The
nearby vineyards, on the northwesterly facing slopes
of Mt. Attaviros (altitude 720800m) are renowned for
their exceptional, indigenous grape varieties – Athiri
and Amorgiano – and for the extremely low yields.
Decades of collaboration with local vine growers from
the region, coupled with our own expertise and commitment,
have enabled us to build a distinctive range of quality
wines from unique Greek varietals known since ancient
times.
Our dedication to quality, our close ties with our
clients and the active involvement of the third generation
of the Triantafillou family consolidate, continue and
secure the success of our winery.
