Boutique family winery. Organic wines and olive oil. Tour and tasting. Very very nice view. Visiting times. April-October 11.00-19.00 every day

Reviewed By fioriouslife - London, United Kingdom

This is the second time we visited this lovely family owned winery and once again we enjoyed a warm welcome from Yannis and his son who walked us through tasting all their delicious wines and Olive Oil. Of course we had to buy as much as we could fit into our suitcase as the wines were just too tasty not to take them with you - so if you go, be prepared with some space in your suitcase. I believe they ship as well and started working with more distributors, so there is hope we can get their tasty wines in the UK in future as well. Regardless of this, that place is always worth a visit as it has lovely views, a nice atmosphere and the wine always tastes best when enjoyed at its source. Thank you so much for having us this year and we will be back again for sure!
