We were very well welcomed and had a very pleasant experience. The staff is attentive and the wines are delicious. To accompany our wine tasting we also ordered some Cretan snacks that were delicious. It's really worth the visit!

Yesterday we had the Yamas wine tasting and ordered two platters with cretan cheeses and meat. We found two of our favorite reds here: the Cabernet Sauvignon and the Sangiovese. Our favorite white was the Chardonnay. The explanations are short, informative with the option to scan a qr code for more details. This was perfect for our group. In addition, you have a great overview where you can rate the wines. It took about an hour and the people were lovely that gave the explanations. The platter was delicious!

Wonderful and interesting. We loved the tour and the very modern equipment, and they were patient, accommodating and helpful with the kids - needless. The wines were outstanding.

This is the processing and fermenting facility of the Douloufakis family winery, their wineyards are located on the easter side of the hill around the village. They are really friendly and welcoming and our host spoke perfect English. We were lucky enough to arrive during the harvesting season so had a sneek peek into how wine here is made and now you can do so too.

Na Krétě pravidelně navštěvujeme různá vinařství, vždy jsme byli spokojeni. Zde ale bylo ještě něco navíc. Bezprostřední přístup slečny, která nám dělala degustaci. A vína, byla samozřejmě vynikající!

We had a great and enjoyable wine tasting at Douloufakis winery last Thursday. We tested red and white wines and had been surprised by the very good quality... Also typical Italian grapes were used in blends with local varieties.... Natasha gave us a good guidandance we felt that she likes what she is doing! The Sauvignon Blanc, as well as Dafnios White and Red, we already enjoyed in our evenings.... In the end we got a short tour over though the wine making facility. Thank you again!

A very nice place but more importantly inviting to visit. A family business. The tour was nice in space. When I got home my hospitality stayed a little longer as some of their wines I had tasted. All of them were ready to solve any questions you may have. It's a great feeling when you look behind the label. It is definitely worth a visit especially since it is only 15 minutes from Heraklion. Neither overpriced were as others write nor rude were the staff. Imagine in the future I will again buy a bottle of wine. Good job guys.

Замечательная винодельня! Остались только положительные впечатления от поездки. Провели экскурсию, правда на англ.языке, далее была дегустация. Несмотря на то, что мы были с ребенком, это нам не помешало. Ребенку предоставили перекус и раскраску с карандашами для рисования. Пробовали несколько разных вин, как закуски хлеб, фрукты, сыр. Все замечательно. С удовольствием приедем ещё.

Es ist interessant in die Tiefe der kretischen Weinberge zu fahren. In dieser Gegend gibt es wohl die meisten Winzer. Die Begrüssung ist nett, für 8€ gibt es fünf Weine zu probieren. Für 10€ einen Teller mit Käse und Schinken. Die Rotweine sind interessant, besonders der Sangiovese und auch der süsse - Helios - 11 Jahre im Eichenfaß.

Μοναδικές Κρητικές ποικιλίες στην καλύτερη εκδοχή τους. Ένας θησαυρός που εμπνεύστηκε ένας άνθρωπος με γνώση, μεράκι, και όραμα. Μια ομάδα που με αγάπη κάνει το όραμα αυτό πραγματικότητα.

Ο χώρος, τα αρώματα, τα χρώματα, η ιστορία και το πάθος των ανθρώπων εκεί για αυτό που κάνουν σε συνδυασμό με τον εξαίσιο χαρακτήρα τους σε κάνει να αισθάνεσαι το μέρος σαν σπίτι σου και να έχεις μια μόνιμη λαχτάρα να επισκέπτεσαι το οινοποιείο.

We are very happy to visit Douloufakis Winery at Dafnes in Crete. Extremely interesting presentation of the wine production process. The tasting was also very good, the wines were delicious. We recommend this place with all our heart.

Must see in Crete! The wines were exquisite, and our guide was extremely knowledgeable.

Nous avons été accueillis par la jeune oenologue du domaine qui a pris le temps de nous présenter le cuvier, la cave et aussi le chai à barriques malgré les préparatifs des vendanges. La dégustation a mis l'accent sur les cépages locaux et était très intéressante avec la découverte d'un "Helios sweet red" cépage Liatiko surprenant de richesse, complexe et équilibré. À recommander clairement.

Nos encantan los vinos, tengo un hijo que es sommelier y se ha encargado de instruirme al respecto y hacerme probar diferentes tipos de cepas y demás así que cuando conocemos algún lugar nuevo tratamos de visitar las bodegas locales. Estábamos en Heraklion así que pedimos información y nos recomendaron ior a la bodega de Douloufakis. Después de un corto trayecto en coche a través de las colinas, dimos con el pueblo de Dafnes y los carteles que nos indicaban la ubicación de la bodega. Una vez allí, nos dieron un tour y luego nos hicieron catar diferentes tipos de vinos con diferentes quesos y panes. Realmente nos quedamos encantados con las variedades cretenses y el sabor de sus vinos! Provechosa excursión vitivinícola…
