Douloufakis Winery

The winery is open to visitors all year round (after appointment). The visitors' wine experience starts even before arriving at the winery, as the route and the surrounded landscape is filled with images that emphasize the viticulturist character of the region. The tour starts from the production areas of the winery, continues at the cellar and ends at the tasting room where the guest then has the opportunity to taste our wines. Please contact earlier to inform us about your visit for wine tasting (via booking form/phone/email). There is a tasting fee of 8-12€ per person. Opening hours: Monday-Friday, 10:00-15:30, after appointment.

My sister and I went to the winery for the tour and tasting in September 2020. Guys were harvesting at that time, so we were lucky to witness some production processes like grape crushing :D The nice lady guide took us through the the place explaining how the wine is made from A to Z. We ended in the tasting room and the wine was delish) Refreshing whites, mouthwatering reds, absolutely Devine desert wines... People, go there and try it yourself! ) I regret we didn’t take home a bottle of Helios ( Was looking for it at the airport with no luck Anyhow, the Alargo Syrah we tried at the winery made a safe trip to London and is waiting for a special occasion to make it even more special Thank you, Douloufakis Winery!

Baraki is a really lovely bar, drinks are cold and the cocktails extensive. The hosts Katerina and Costas are really friendly and very knowledgeable about the area and happy to chat. Near to other shops and restaurants so the teenagers can go for a wander and know where we are. Excellent addition to our holiday!

Thanks to Nicky Paterianaki for taking the time to conduct a wine tasting and tell us the history of this family owned winery now run by a generation of daughters. Beautiful setting for the tasting and great to learn about the indigenous varieties in this PDO region. Kudos for producing such fine organic wines and taking care of the environment.

Reviewed By lornagrace - Bexhill-on-Sea, United Kingdom

Great bar in the centre of piskopiano, a fabulous choice of drinks, and a gin selection that kept my husband happy. Eleni and Michalis are fabulous hosts, and went out of their way to make sure we were covid safe and could watch the F1 with a nice cold drink. Martin at the front of house is great fun and a great waiter, and the DJ played us some great tunes. A great bar to visit if you're in the area.
