Tasting Notes

This varietal Vidiano from the Dafnes appellation on Crete shows the grape’s hallmark balance of fragrance and texture. Aromas of ripe stone fruit—peach and apricot—lifted by citrus zest, wild herbs and a gentle floral note, lead into a palate that is rounded yet fresh. Juicy orchard fruit is layered with hints of honey and almond, carried by bright acidity and a subtle saline edge. The finish is long, elegant and slightly mineral, making it both approachable in youth and worthy of short-term cellaring. - Chris L

Douloufakis is a third-generation, family-run winery based in Dafnes, a hillside village just south of Heraklion on Crete. The current generation is led by Nikos Douloufakis, who studied oenology in Alba, Italy, and has modernized vineyard and cellar practices while staying rooted in tradition. The estate owns about 20 hectares of vineyards at 350-400 metres elevation, and works with a further 25 hectares of partnered vineyards nearby, all farmed organically. Their plantings focus on Cretan indigenous varieties—Vidiano, Vilana, Liatiko, Kotsifali, Mandilari, Malvasia di Candia, Moschato Spinas—as well as select international grapes. Douloufakis is known for bringing out purity, texture and freshness in Crete’s wines, with sensitive winemaking, experimentation (skin contact, amphora ageing, sparkling), and wines that express both local climate and varietal character.
