We had the most wonderful day visiting Lyrarakis Winery. Kallia, our guide and sommelier is not only warm and friendly, but she is also very knowledgeable. She told us so many interesting stories about Crete, and of course the vineyards and wines.
The wine tasting under an olive tree overlooking the vineyards and mountains was stunning. We were treated to generous servings of delicious wines, paired with very very good traditional Cretan food. Everything was just perfect.
We organised the trip through our hotel. It was quite expensive, but actually it was such a lovely experience that felt very authentic and personal, so I do think it was worth it. I’d recommend anyone with an interest in food, wine, culture, history and geography to book.
