  First of all, Oinoxoos House is not a wine producer.. They sell wine... so what you’re going to hear and taste isn’t influenced by just one producer.
Our host... read more sommelier was Evi, who met us with flair and joy, and apparently enjoyed her work with wines. Her systematical work through of the specific Cretan grapes and the tasting of 11 typical wines was fantastic to say the least. These wines were paired with excellent Cretan food, made by the owner Michail and his family. Superb evening with great wines and delicious food. Superb presentation by Evi who got us through all the specific grapes and the wonderful wines.
For everyone who loves wine and would like to know more about the grapes and wines of Crete
This should not be missed!!

  We want to first and foremost, thank Evi (House Sommelier) for the most incredible evening!!! The Oinoxoos House and their staff were incredibly gracious and welcoming. The sommelier was so... read more passionate about the wines and their histories, but most importantly she made it fun. We opted for the dinner and tasting and it was, by far, one of the best dinners we had while in Crete. We will 100000% see you again!!!

Wine - 11 different tastings. All Cretan varieties; red and white
Food - Dinner courses were expertly paired with different wines. Fun fact, most of the dishes are prepared by the owner's wife or the sommelier's family!!!!
Price - Reasonable
Atmosphere - The wine tasting area of the store is beautiful! The area is intimate but not small. It would be an excellent place to take parties of 2 or 10+!
Staff- INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shopping - all wines are for sale after the tasting. Perfect for a gift to bring home! More

  The wine tasting at Oinoxoos house was one of the highlights of our excellent holiday in Crete. Our host Evi was fantastic - so knowledgeable and so friendly it felt... read more like relaxing at a friend's house, but a friend with a huge and awesome wine cellar. Her English was very good too. We had a choice from a wide range of Cretan wines, all grown on the island and mostly native grapes that we hadn't tried before. There were some lovely wines. We had mostly dry whites including a dry muscat of spina and local rare grapes the Plito and very interesting Dafni but also reds and a sweet Liatiko. There was abundant snacking food and Evi advised on pairing too. A short drive from Rethymno - be warned our taxi driver had not heard of the place though. An absolute must-go if you are in the area.

  My friends and I booked a wine-tasting package as a mini hen-do for our friend. We were blown away with how professional, knowledgeable and friendly our sommelier, Evi, was. We... read more learned a lot about Cretan wines, which were delicious, but we also had a fantastic time and laughed a lot with Evi. Our package included some Greek food and we were extremely impressed with the food as well as the wine. We finished our evening with some wine out on the terrace, watching the sunset, which was stunning. Our wine-tasting experience was definitely one of the higlights of our trip (not counting our friend's wedding) and we would all recommend Oinoxoos House. More

  I was in Crete with my friend (both aged 25) and was looking out for a local wine tasting. After a quick google I emailed Evi enquiring about availability in... read more Oinoxoos House and she got back to me straight away with dates.

Be prepared to have you google maps at the ready because our taxi driver didn’t recognize the address - but we had such fun getting there!! (About 15 mins from Rethymnon)

This is by far the best wine tasting I have ever done! Evi was so passionate, knowledgeable and friendly. We were in a group (about 8-10 people) of mixed ages and nationalities and we all got on like a house on fire - some of us even ended up going for dinner afterwards. The wine was beautiful, flowing freely and the accompanying nibbles were beautiful.

I had a brilliant day and learned so much about Cretan wine and wine in general. A real authentic experience that I will never forget, all thanks to Evi!!!

Thank you again Evi!!
