Really a very nice experience! Very knowledgeable guide, lots of wine to taste, just a 30 minutes taxi ride from Heraklion, one of our best wine tasting experiences (and we have had MANY) ever. We also found some of their wines back in the US!

We had a wine and olive oil testing. It was very interesting especially olive oil testing, because it was something new for us.
I recommend this Winery and Femina white wine.

We went for the wine and olive oil tasting. The staff is of really lovely people that are very knowledgeable about their wines. The highlight was definitely the olive oil tasting, as the lady that presented the oils was so great at her job and really helped us understand the complexities of olive oil.
