Giorgos Paterianakis, a civil engineer by profession, decided, after conducting studies and many wine trips, to build a model winery literally within the vineyard. Using natural materials, he designed the winery on six different levels so as to take advantage of gravity at all the stages of winemaking.
Production stations have been created at different levels in the winery, so as to facilitate the various tasks during the harvest and to ensure that they are carried out in a naturally cool environment. At the same time, the most modern winemaking systems have been installed with the ultimate goal of producing high quality wines. The production process is carried out, as is the cultivation, according to organic wine making standards, without the addition of chemicals or foreign bodies.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The bottling and storage areas are located in the same space but at a different level, as is a fully equipped laboratory for chemical analysis. In the winery\u2019s underground cellar, a special area has been created where all the Domaine\u2019s wines are aged, either in 225 litre French oak barrels or in bottles, with stable humidity and temperature levels.<\/p>

Construction of the Winery was completed in 1997, when the first organic wine of Crete was produced in the Domaine. The Domaine\u2019s first wines were the \u201cDomaine Paterianakis\u201d and the \u201cMelissinos Ros\u00e9\u201d, which were distinguished for their particular wine characteristics as well as the fact that they were made from organically cultivated grapes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

From the first moment, we embraced the virtues of organic farming in our vineyards as well as an organic approach to making our wines. Our goal is for the vine to grow within a completely natural environment, in harmony with the other flora and fauna, so that it can fight off any diseases and nurture the soil without the use of artificial or toxic chemicals. For this reason, the only intervention we make in the life cycle of the product is with natural organic fertilisers of a plant or animal origin and natural minerals such as sulphur and copper.\u00a0<\/p>

All our wines are produced according to strict organic standards and with the use of native yeasts and sulphite, the preservative that is used to combat undesirable bacteria which can cause wine oxidation, at the minimum level permitted by EU Regulation 203\/2012 for organic wines. The inspection and certification of our organic vineyards is done by DIO, the officially recognized agency for the certification of organic products in Greece.<\/p>

By choosing organic farming and winemaking, we are protecting the uniqueness of our terroir and enabling our wines to showcase the characteristics of their varieties and the climate of our homeland. In this way, we ensure the authenticity of each of our wines.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
