Immerse Yourself in the Boutari Winery Experience

Located just 8 kilometres from the city centre of Heraklion and 4 kilometres from the Knossos archaeological site, it stands as the crowning jewel of the Peza viticultural zone, situated outside the village of Skalani on the Fantaxometocho Estate.

Situated in an expanse spanning 70 acres, the privately owned Boutari vineyard is nestled at an elevation ranging from 170 metres to 215 metres.

The winery offers a visit to its extensive cellar and a remarkable tasting room, providing you with the chance to sample both current and older vintages of the Estate's wines, alongside experimental vinifications. This tasting experience is complemented by authentic Cretan cuisine recipes.

In the spring of 2015, Boutari Winery established Scalani Hills Boutari Winery and Residences through a partnership with Aria Hotels. This venture offers three luxurious residences nestled within the 70-acre vineyard, situated in the beautifully renovated old Metochi buildings.
