Dafnes Valley

Dafnes is one of four PDO appellations on the Greek island of Crete in the southern Aegean Sea. The designation covers red wines from the Liatiko grape variety. These may be more conventional dry reds or sweet wines made from sun-dried grapes.

Let your senses guide you through the wineries counting nearly 20-30 years of wine-making tradition. Wander around a vineyard and enjoy breathtaking views relaxing under the shade of the pergola at the vineyard house. This seasonal 6-hour guided wine tour includes a Winery Tour, wine tasting of 10 different wine labels, all from indigenous varieties & a visit to Kato Asites village for lunch, and true Cretan Cuisine.
