were actually a collection made possible by donations made by the neighboring wine manufacturers and the local people.
The wine museum is essentially a renovated and extended portion of the original building owned by a person called Ioannis Boutaris. Ioannis Boutaris was the first person to offer packaged and bottled wine in this region starting in the year 1879.
The museum authorities had put on public view the different equipments used in the manufacture of wine and other agricultural paraphernalia used by the vine growing population.
The descendents of the Boutaris family have embarked on a commendable effort to preserve the rich culture and heritage of their family by way of building a great winery, a wine tasting hall with latest gadgets for a visual experience through a programme, which is aptly named as “The Roads of Wine”. It is open to the public daily by prior arrangement.
For the tourist there are added attractions to the place during July and August. The locals celebrate a “Fish and Wine Festival” and also celebrate “Pirate Night” which started to eliminate unpleasant reminiscences of pirate rampage that overwhelmed these people for countless years.
