HiGerard, thank you so much for your amazing feedback. It really means the world to us. Indeed, the five months we spent in Chania were glorious. Cretan wines are growing in popularity and must be experienced. All the wineries we featured are owned by families who have been in winemaking business for years. Some of our favorites are Manousakis, Dourakis and Karavitakis. But you really can’t go wrong with the wines. Do let us know when you visit Crete, we can recommend tons of stuff to explore. Many thanks and best wishes. Cheers

Thank you. We have visited Greece multiple times and as sailors, have also sailed around the islands quite a bit. We had a short but lovely stop-over on Crete (Chania) on a cruise liner and vowed to return for a longer visit. To rent a car and drive around for a week to ten days. From the deck of the cruise liner we were fortunate to sail all along and close to the coastline – and look in awe at the beautiful mountains, coastline and villages. We are very interested in wine and your article has really aroused our wish to return to Crete and tour around and learn a bit more about the wines. Thank you once again for a super article.

One question please: Are the wines of Crete known mainly for their regions or for their cultivars? If you experienced cultivars could you please name a few. This will be most interesting. Best wishes, Gerard

It is something that I would be interested in doing even though I am not a drinker. It is amazing that grapes and other fruits can be turned into wine.

But wineries in Greece sounds so romantic! I would like to visit one some day.
