Description

No visit in Chania is complete without a trip to the authentic villages of Apokoronas . Fres is the perfect example of a traditional village. The wine tasting is taking place in the beautiful square of Fres. As a chemist and winemaker I have the knowledge and the experience to give you a full aspect of wine history and production of the wines of Crete. Tasting these 6 wines of Crete, you'll have the opportunity to experience the progress of the wine making in Crete and the diversity of cretan wines. Not a typical wine tasting, offering a modern and authentic experience, sharing the passion for Cretan wines.

Fun village setting, delicious wines!

This is a fun way to get out of the city and taste some local wines. Our host andreas was super knowledgeable and did a fantastic job of talking about and educating us on the local wine and overall wine production in Crete. Bought wine to take home. A wonderful experience!

Very nice and knowledgeable wine tasting

Very nice experience with expert explanation of the proposed wines. André is a nice host and knows what he is talking about! Great to recommend. He also has a soap maker (didn't know this was a craft), but that was also very nice to see.

Amazing

We had the best time. Had a group of 8 and everyone had amazing time. Was able to work out a schedule time for our needs. The court yard is a cute little village with a restaurant to go to after the wine tasting. Cheese was delicious!!!

Wonderful experience for wine lovers on a picturesque village near Chania

The place offers some really good local Cretan wine choices. The staff were friendly and happy to help. Fres is a picturesque village and the hospitality is awesome. The owner gave us a treat of many other local products.The price is fairly cheap also. I highly recommend it to everyone interested in wine tasting and also in getting to experience the tradition of Crete. Highly recommended
