Marianna's Stuffed Greek Grape Leaves Dolmades, 200gr

We started in 1994, driven by our passion for pure and traditional Greek flavors. The reputation of our products soon reached well out of the small circle of friends and family, whereas their quality soon advertised the best way: mouth to mouth. More than often we had to disappoint some of our friends, as the supply was never enough to satisfy the demand for our vineleaves. Our products are grown in the vineyards of our family, with a total surface of approximately 80 stremma (80,000 sq. m.), at Nea Gonia in Halkidiki. The methods we use in the cultivation of the vineyards and in the processing of our products are a combination of modern agriculture know-how and traditional recipes transferred to us by our grandfathers and grandmothers, brought with them from Asia Minor, Eastern Thrace and Armenia at the dawn of the 20th century. This is the reason why all our vineyards are "Sultana", a variety that provides tender and tasty leaves, despite the low production of grapes. At the beginning of the '90s we converted our vineyards to organic. Despite the relatively higher cost of production, we believed - and still do - that this method of viticulture was closer to our overall life philosophy. In this way, not only our products are pure, with no chemical fertilizers, pesticides and other artificial additives, but they are also more tasty. Also, our vineyards grow in a natural way, respecting the natural environment and providing products with the utmost safety for the end consumer.
