Amazing experience - It was an amazing experience. The tour was guided by Gorge, a really nice and knowledgeable wine guide. Also we been there with three other couples from around the world (Netherlands, Great Britain and France), it also made the experience even more exclusive and fun.

Nice wine tasting experience - Nice experience of the wine tasting in the vineyards of Douloufakis. While tasting the wines we got a great explanation about the grapes and the wines from Giorgos. And all that accompanied with some local cheeses and an amazing view. We truly enjoyed it!

Fantastic experience - Next to an excellent exposé on the winery, the wine making and the different wines, the tasting in the vine yard was fantastic.

Lovely experience - This was a Father's Day gift from my son to his dad. We had a lovely time. Looking round the winery was interesting but we then were led to the vineyard which was a beautiful place to be: we sat at a table overlooking a valley with olive groves and vineyards while we tried the different wines (and some cheese). George, one of the owners, was friendly and not at all patronising (as we are not wine connoisseurs). He was really interesting to talk to. At the end we could have stayed longer but we had had enough wine by then!

Wine and a platter - Tasting 3 white and three red wines at this traditional cretan winery. We also opted for the food platter which was excellent. An explanation of the wines, a scoring chart. People not familiar with how to properly taste the wines mAy not have benefited fully from the experience. The process at the end felt a little rushed.
