Discover the authentic flavors of Crete through our Petradias Collection. This tasting experience is dedicated to the island’s rich viticultural heritage, featuring five single varietal wines that showcase the unique character of our land.
Your visit begins with a guided tour of our winery facilities and cellar, where you’ll learn about our philosophy and our dedication to preserving local traditions. Following the tour, you will enjoy a guided tasting session in our indoor tasting room or under our shaded outdoor pergola, overlooking the estate.
The Wine Tasting (5 Single-Varietal Labels):
We focus on the gems of the Cretan earth, exploring 4 indigenous varieties and one world-class grape that thrives in our terroir:
Vilana Petradias: The undisputed queen of Crete; a crisp white wine with delicate citrus aromas and a refreshing, zesty finish.
Vidiano Petradias: An ancient Cretan treasure; a complex, full-bodied white with elegant notes of apricot and a creamy, velvet texture.
Assyrtiko Petradias: A world-renowned variety that expresses a unique mineral character in our soil.
Kotsifali Petradias: A classic red variety, smooth and aromatic, capturing the essence of the island.
Mandilari Petradias: The "king" of Cretan red grapes, bold, structured, and full of character.
Accompaniments
To enhance the tasting, each flight is served with a curated platter of local products:
Artisan Cretan Cheese & Rusks/Bread
Estate-Grown Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Crunchy Breadsticks & a Blend of Premium Nuts
