Een echte aanrader!

Hele fijne ervaring gehad! De gids van de olijfolie proeverij en rondleiding wist duidelijk waar ze het over had en vertelde het op een hele interessante manier. De wijnproeverij was echt geweldig! Heerlijke wijnen en lekker hapjes, waarbij ook nog wordt geadviseerd welk hapje bij welke wijn. Een echt gezellige smaaksensatie en ook hier weer een super enthousiaste sommelier.

A great visit and experience

Really enjoyable visit to this olive oil factory which is now diversifying into rose wine. Our 5 wine pairing session was informative and delicious, sitting under a covered veranda surrounded by olive trees and mountains. The lady doing the wine tasting was a chemist and knew a lot about the composition and history of the local area and wine culture. The lady who then did the olive oil factory tour and tasting was great, spoke perfect English and gave a great tour of the factory. Would highly re...read more

Highly recommended wine tasting and Olive tour

Really enjoyable few hours with my family at the Estate. Started with a tour of the Olive Oil factory in a group @ 20 people. Some had done some Olive oil tasting first (combo ticket) but our ticket was just for the tour and then the wine tasting. Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent Engish. The wine tasting was upstairs, seated at nicely laid tables. We had 5 superb wines, with explanations and tasting notes. This was accompanied by the most delicious tapenade, cheese, nuts an...read more

Highly recommended

Really great experience at Vassilakis. We did the wine tasting experience. This consisted of a quick tour of the olive oil factory, and then we were taken up stairs to a lovely space to do the tasting. We tried 5 wines and had a gorgeous platter of food to pair with the wines. Stunning! Star of the show was Val who was friendly, knowledgeable and good humoured. When the tasting was finished she took us to the shop and gave us samples of olives, olive oil, raki, beauty products. I know they do ...read more

Wonderful wine, food and company

This experience was amazing, I cannot recommend it enough. The quality of the wine and the food combination was exceptional. It has been one of the best wine tasting experiences I have been on, it had a lot of thought and consideration of how the wine and food worked together along with details of the wine, it all was really lovely. The guide expertise was excellent. We had a wonderful group to do the tour and wine tasting with, and that really did make the experience even better! I don't th...read more
