Description
Located in the heart of P.D.O. Peza, Crete’s primary wine region, DIGENAKIS winery is a mere 20 km from Heraklion and 10 km from the famed Knossos Palace. Blessed with an ideal climate and nutrient-rich soil, we meticulously cultivate grape varieties in mountainous terrains, focusing on quality over quantity. Blending local and international grapes results in exceptional wines, aged in oak barrels to embody our commitment to superior winemaking.
Beyond crafting high-quality wines, DIGENAKIS winery views winemaking as a cultural pursuit, intertwining it with art forms like music, painting, poetry, and theater. Our state-of-the-art facilities serve as a cultural hub for artists, welcoming them to showcase their work and enrich the region’s cultural landscape.
Artistic expression meets winemaking excellence at our winery, where each visit is not just about tasting wine but experiencing art in a multifaceted way. Through a fusion of grape and creativity, DIGENAKIS Art Winery invites you to savour more than just wine – but a symphony of time, place, and passion embodied in each bottle
