Viticulture has a very long history on the island, since its roots are lost in the depths of the centuries. According to tradition, the first vine on the island was planted by Kefalos. In the history of the island, viticulture has been an important factor for the economy of Kefalonia. The climatic conditions and the wide variety of vines favor the production of wines of excellent quality. One of them is the world famous Robola<\/strong>. It is characteristic that the vines of Robola literally come out of the stones. The Venetians called Robola Vino di Dasso, a wine of stone. An important production center of Robola is the area of Omala, at the foot of Enos. Its aroma is characterized by the scent of fruit, such as peach, citron, apple. Apart from Robola, the Mavrodaphne<\/strong> of Kefalonia is also famous, as well as Vostilidi,<\/strong> Tsaousi<\/strong>\u00a0 and\u00a0 Moschato <\/strong>wines.<\/p>\n
