Poros Island is a small island in the Saronic Gulf in Greece. It is known for having pine forests, peace and quiet, and an old charm that only a Poros vacation can give you. Other islands in this area include Hydra, Aegina, and Spetses. Poros should not be confused with Paros, an island in the Cyclades. Note that Poros Kefalonia is also a different destination -- it is not an island but is a town on the island of Kefalonia. The island of Poros is made up of two smaller islands: Sferia and Kalavria. If you look at a Poros Greece map, you will see that both sides are connected with a bridge. Kalavria was first dedicated to the god Apollo, and the island is known for its fresh springs and streams. Sferia is smaller and has today’s Poros town.

Set in the heart of Amyndeon, northwestern Macedonia, lies Alpha Estate, an unparalleled wine sanctuary. Amidst its constantly growing reputation, this vine-growing haven, though lesser-known in the grand Greek tapestry, is just a stone's throw from the tranquil waters of the Petres and Vegoritida lakes. Surrounding attractions, like the idyllic Nymfaio village and the awe-inspiring ski resorts of Pisoderi (Vigla) and Agios Athanasios in the Voras-Kaimaktsalan mountains, only add to its allure. You can find the vineyard at an altitude of 620-680 meters, and the soil there is sandy with minimum rainfall. It takes up 220 hectares of land.
