Laconia has well-made vineyards, which, most of them, are gathered around Sparta and Monemvasia and produces wine from special vine varieties (e.g. Kidonitsa, Mavroudi, Monemvasia). It also has modern wineries, which produce really interesting and, even, emblematic wines. Monemvasia, in fact, has linked its history with the production of a historic wine, Malvasia. The Malvasian wine, a strong commercial paper of the past, has revived and plays an important role in the field of wines today.
Wines from other Greek varieties are also produced (e.g. Agiorgitiko, Assyrtiko, Filleri, Malagouzia).
