Discover the Legacy of Cretan Winemaking

Join us on the Karavitakis Winery Tour and experience the tradition, innovation, and passion of one of Crete’s most respected family-run wineries. Located in Pontikiana, near the Kolymbari region of Chania, the Karavitakis family has been involved in wine, olive oil, and raisin production for generations.

In 1998, Michalis Karavitakis took a bold step by modernizing the family vineyards—introducing both local and international grape varieties—and establishing a traditionally styled winery that blends heritage with progress. Over time, new varieties have been added to enhance the richness and uniqueness of the wines.

A Year-Round Destination

The winery welcomes guests all year round, offering insightful guided tours through its facilities. Learn about the winemaking process from vine to bottle and enjoy a comprehensive wine tasting session on-site. Visitors also have the opportunity to purchase their favorite wines directly from the estate.
