During summer someone can enjoy cherries and all the other kind of fruits, but autumn time at the village smells the lovely aroma of the products of grapes. The villagers prepare their suzukko (grapes sweet), epsima (grapes syrup), raisins and zivania (a strong alcohol very good for the cold days of winter).
