Reviews
We were given a detailed tour of the olive mill explained in detail how organic olive oil is made from picking the olives to cleaning crushing cold pressed the ancient way then bottling to bring us the most pure fresh olive oil Crete is so famous for. Along the way she shared with us very fascinating in-depth history of Greek wines as well as selected an impeccable Wine Tasting with local Cretan wines to go with each course of our delicious Boozy Brunch at the organic local olive oil mill in the beautiful picturesque Chania countryside.
She even sent us wine tasting notes to watch in the comfort and convenience of our own home, to help relive the moments of our visit to Chania, Crete, Greece
