Dourakis Winery

Great discovery. Great moment in all simplicity. Warm welcome, the wines are well explained in English and are good, with local grape varieties that are different from what we are used to finding in France. Generous tasting. Thank you for this good time.

Best wines in the eastern part of Crete. Pass by for a wine tasting and grab a couple of bottles to drink while on vacation. The production is small and of high quality.

I stopped by for a tasting. Because it pours so much I also ordered some Cretan food. It was very delicious. The olive oil on the bread was also delicious so I got that with the wine.

A really great garden around the house. The ladies are very friendly and describe their wines very nicely. English is no problem. You can come by any time for a 5 or 8-part wine tasting. We only had a couple of starters for dinner, but it was one of the best I had on Crete. Highly recommended.

Modern wine Shop with atmospheric patio! We chose the tasting with the 5 most popular ones and enjoyed the nice atmosphere on the patio. Food at neighbours table looked very good and the cooking class next to us made also a very entertaining & authentic impression!

We spontaneously booked a wine tasting for 5 wines. We received a very warm welcome. The location is very beautiful and the wines were delicious. Olives and bread were served with the wine. Afterwards we bought our two favorite wines. We will definitely be back.

We had a good visit to this place. You can have a tasting of 5 or 8 wines. 5 wines per person is 15 euro. Note: the water is NOT included, you pay for it too. This is somehow from my opinion a bit strange as it is served before you get your first wine. The wines are nice and good, and it is a unique taste. The staff/lady who helped us was in a bit of rush. Before finishing the glas, she already came for the next one. It is worth a visit, nice place and good food.

Booked the tasting of their most popular 5 wines for 15 euros per person. Were given olives and bread to go with the tasting. Very beautiful winery with great personnel 🍷

Premium tasting with 9 wines reserved! Very nice winery, friendly and very helpful staff!!! Good quality wines, some of them of excellent quality!!! Guided tour of the winery with a very precise description of his work by the winemaker with very appropriate answers to any curiosity!!! If you like wine I advise you not to miss the opportunity of this visit!!!

Before we went on holiday I booked a tasting and cellar tour at Dourakis Winery. It was €15 each for the standard tasting, which comprised 5 of their most popular wines. These were served with a large bottle of water (you could have still or sparkling), a small dish of olives and small "rusks". We really enjoyed all of the wines and bought a couple of bottles at the end of the experience. After the tasting was a tour of the cellars (thankfully nice and cool on a hot day) and an explanation of how the different wines were produced, and from which grapes. The lady doing our tasting was lovely and very knowledgeable. There were a couple of wine-buffs on our tour but she easily answered any questions asked. After the tour we decided to have lunch at the winery and I would really recommend this. We just had a light lunch and they gave us four complimentary fresh figs for dessert. The whole visit was a lovely, unhurried and good quality experience. Highly recommended!

Wine tasting with a great atmosphere and delicious wines The wine tasting was a great experience! The terrace is beautifully situated. We tried 8 different wines, that's the "big package". The tour of the cellar and the wine store was very interesting. Booking online the day before was easy and uncomplicated. Wine and specialties can be bought in a shop. Absolutely recommended!

We stopped at the winery without a reservation and were given a very friendly welcome. During the wine tasting of two very tasty white wines we learned a lot about the wines and the winery. Since we were traveling by car, we only did a small tasting but took two wines with us for later. All in all, a lovely trip if you are in the area.

We discovered this vineyard by chance, while going on a hike. We were with our two young children and we had a great time. We visited the cellars, which are magnificent, and did a tasting of 5 wines. All served with olives and bread. The place is idyllic and enchanting.

Our visit to Dourakis Winery was memorable. We took the tasting of 5 wines. The white wines (with indigenous grape varieties) charmed us. The employees were attentive and the portions generous. We recommend ♥️

A cellar of excellence

We went to the winery without registering in advance and were greeted very warmly. As we were there by car, we didn't do a traditional wine tasting and just wanted to have a leisurely glass. We were allowed to try three wines and then choose one. The wine was served with a carafe of water and some pastries. We sat outside on the terrace in the garden, a really nice place! In the end we took a bottle of white wine with us and paid €18 for the two glasses, which is fine. In the evening we discovered that the same one was being sold in our hotel at a comparable price per glass. We also made an interesting discovery in the supermarket. They also had wines from this winery, but much cheaper, only €5 per bottle. First we drove past a local effect, which was a small supermarket away from the tourists. However, the bottles had a screw cap instead of a cork and the wine tasted much worse (we bought a bottle of rosé and a white, just like the ones we had drunk there by the glass. Very strange, so only real ones with a cork, but then it's good 😊👌
