Mediterra produces wines from Crete, the Mediterranean's largest Greek island, where ancient viticulture traditions meet contemporary winemaking. The winery focuses on indigenous Greek varieties, anchoring its portfolio in Vilana and Agiorgitiko—grapes with deep roots in the region's terroir. Xerolithia and Silenus Beta, both Vilana-based wines, represent the winery's core offerings and have been assessed by Wine Advocate and Wine Enthusiast. Vilana thrives in Crete's warm, sun-exposed vineyards, yielding wines with distinctive character shaped by the island's limestone soils and maritime climate. The Agiorgitiko selection rounds out the range, drawing on a variety prized across Greece for its structural balance. These wines reflect the specificity of Cretan viticulture—a place where volcanic and limestone geology, sea breezes, and centuries of grape cultivation converge.
