No visit in Chania is complete without a trip to the authentic villages of Apokoronas . Fres is the perfect example of a traditional village.
The wine tasting is taking place in the beautiful square of Fres.
As a chemist and winemaker I have the knowledge and the experience to give you a full aspect of wine history and production of the wines of Crete.
Tasting these 6 wines of Crete, you'll have the opportunity to experience the progress of the wine making in Crete and the diversity of cretan wines.

5.00Very nice experience with expert explanation of the proposed wines. André is a nice host and knows what he is talking about! Great to recommend. He also has a soap maker (didn't know this was a craft), but that was also very nice to see.
