Description
Domaine Lyrarakis, established in 1966, is located in the mountainous commune of Alagni (440 metres above sea-level), south of the city of Heraklion, in Crete. The well-preserved 14th-century stone-presses in the fields around the winery are testament to the area’s long history of grape-growing and winemaking.
The winery is at the forefront of viticultural innovation, championing obscure local varieties such as the ancient white cultivars of Plytó, Dafni, and Vidiano, that it rescued from extinction.
Join us in the Sussex cellar on Friday 12th April to hear more about their work in the vineyard and winery, and taste through their range of native Cretan grapes, alongside a delicious four-course Mediterranean feast. This will be hosted by Bart Lyrarakis, from the Domaine (Ktima), and Demetri Walters MW.
The following wines will be accompanied by a menu specially prepared by Head Chef Stewart Turner:
2017 Ktima Lyrarakis White, Crete
