We cultivate six unique indigenous grape varieties alongside five international varieties, using the latest organic techniques to produce wines with a strong personality and a deep connection to the land. Visitors to Domaine Paterianakis can experience the rich tradition of Cretan winemaking while discovering the distinct flavors that make our wines truly special.
