Crete isn’t just a destination—it’s an experience, lived through its landscapes, its people, and its aromas. Among the island’s many unique offerings, wine stands out: a living tradition that stretches from Minoan times to today. Every winery, every old or new wine press tells a story of heritage and renewal.

In the latest episode of the Discover Crete Podcast, Areti Valtadorou from Oinos Experience talks to us about the magic of wine tourism in Crete—about the flavours and fragrances that unfold in each glass, and the hospitality that becomes an art form.

We explore indigenous grape varieties, natural farming methods, and the value of authentic experiences that bring visitors closer to the heart of the island.

Press play and let Cretan wine take you on a journey.
