About Winery and Wines

Domaine Paterianakis is a third-generation family winery located on the beautiful island of Crete, a region with over 4,000 years of winemaking history. As pioneers of organic grape cultivation on the island, we are dedicated to producing wines that are not only high in quality but also 100% environmentally friendly. Our commitment to organic farming means that we avoid the use of chemical or synthetic fertilizers, ensuring that our production process does not contaminate the soil, water, or atmosphere. This dedication to sustainable practices allows us to create wines that are natural, authentic, and a true expression of the Cretan terroir.

Our winery is vertically integrated, which means we control every step of the production process, from the vineyard to the bottle. 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.

At Domaine Paterianakis, our wines are a reflection of our passion for organic viticulture and the unique terroir of Crete. We produce a diverse range of wines that highlight both indigenous and international grape varieties, each crafted with care to bring out the best characteristics of the fruit.
