At the root of Psiloritis, with the historic Malevizio Wine Land in the background, Diamantakis Winery constitutes a new, contemporary unit for the production of qualitative wines in Crete.

It is located southwest of the city of Heraklion, outside Kato Asites village and the historic Gorgolaini Monastery. It was founded in 2007 by members of Nikolaos G. Diamantakis family: Ioannis, Michael, and Zacharias. The first two, third-generation winegrowers, possess an extensive experience in viticulture and they are responsible for the wine-growing department of the Winery, whereas Zacharias, with studies in oenology, is in charge of the process of winemaking and wine promotion.

The family aims to produce fine wines, cultivating the vineyards with respect and care and making good use of the region’s unique microclimate, in combination with local grape varieties, like Liatiko, Vidiano, Mandilaria and Assyrtiko.

All the wines of the Winery have participated in competitions and they have won important distinctions in the biggest wine competitions worldwide.

The Winery is open to visitors and it offers special wine tour packages.
