Louloudis Winery

Louloudis Winery, located in Dafnes, Heraklion, Crete, traces its roots back to 1920, when grandfather Antonis Louloudis began cultivating the island’s traditional grape varieties—Liatiko, Taktas, and Kotsifali.

Since 1999, his grandson, also named Antonis, has continued the family legacy, blending generations of Cretan winemaking heritage with a contemporary vision and a deep respect for the land.

At our winery, we place special emphasis on authentic Cretan grape varieties, expressing the unique identity of our terroir through every label. Each wine is a reflection of Crete’s history, climate, and character.
