Kefalonia is famous for its local wine varieties“Robola”, “Mavrodafni” and Kefalonian Moschato. “Robola”, specifically, is one of the three best wine varieties in Greece! About 500 tons of “Robola” wine are produced every year, many of them exported mainly in Europe and the USA.
When we first visited Kefalonia in July 2001, the filming of the movie, 'Captain Corelli's Mandolin' was not long completed and superstars like Steven Spielberg, Madonna and Tom Cruise were holidaying on enormous yachts sailing around the island's coastline. Kefalonia was in vogue amongst the celebrity elite at that time, but happily the island has remained unspoilt and retains its stunning, tranquil beauty.
