Loupakis Estate
Intro
The winery is located in Kares Kissamou, in the semi-mountainous zone of the Municipality of Platanias, Chania, at the top of the Gra-Lygia hill, overlooking the White Mountains and the Cretan Sea.
Estate
The history begins in the 1970s when grandfather Charidimos Loupakis traded table grapes. His son, Manolis Loupakis, proceeded with replanting, creating a linear vineyard that was awarded. Today, the reins are held by Miltiadis Loupakis (oenologist) and Aspasia Loupakis, bringing a new scientific and qualitative dimension to the family tradition.
