Nikos Karatzas

Nikos Karatzas is a winemaker from Drama, Greece, who established his own winery out of a pure love for wine. He describes the current landscape of wine consumption as 'confusing,' noting that wine has recently been categorized under the general umbrella of alcohol, despite its status as a noble product. He observes a decline in bottled wine choices in restaurants, attributing this to rising prices and competition from cocktails. Karatzas emphasizes the importance of quality and the relationship with consumers, advocating for wines that hold higher value than their cost.
