Here is what's in store for you

During sunset, immerse yourself in the new era of Cretan wines at Wine Garden, a tranquil retreat just 15 minutes from Heraklion, 10 minutes from Knossos, and on the way to the charming village of Archanes. Set on a hilltop cottage, Wine Garden offers breathtaking views of vineyards, olive groves, mountain peaks, and the Aegean Sea.

Explore the rich wine heritage of Crete in a serene environment, where you can delve into the island's winemaking history and discover the unique characteristics of indigenous grape varieties. Guided by seasoned professionals in both wine and hospitality, this experience takes you on a sensory journey through the aromas and flavors of Cretan terroir. Whether enjoying a moment of relaxation with friends or family or deepening your understanding of Cretan culture and landscape, Wine Garden provides a memorable experience. The project, driven by Nicolas — a wine expert with over 25 years in winemaking and international wine marketing — and Angeliki, a former ballet dancer turned event planner with two decades of event creation, offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

This Sunset experience includes a tasting of 8 selected Cretan wines, accompanied by a small meze plate as well as a platter of cheese and cold cuts.
