Douloufakis Winery, steeped in the rich winemaking heritage of Crete, epitomizes a blend of tradition and innovation. Since Dimitris Douloufakis pioneered professional winemaking in Crete in 1930, the family legacy continues under his grandson, Nikolas, who maintains traditional practices while embracing modern techniques in a new facility. Situated in Dafnes, near Iraklio, the winery's privately owned organic vineyards sprawl over 70 acres, reaching elevations of 1,800 feet. With a focus on indigenous varieties like Liatiko, Kotsifali, Vilana, and Vidiano, alongside international grapes like Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Chardonnay, Douloufakis showcases the terroir and heritage of the region.
