The varities they cultivate in their vineyard are: Savatiano, Agiorgitiko, Assyrtiko, Roditis, Athiri, Moschofileto, Moschato, Malagouzia, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and Trebbiano.

The winery of Markou brothers is open to the puplic and they offer from their cellar all their wines for wine tasting.
