What you’ll find

What Manousakis Winery is known for

Ted Manousakis planted this organic estate on the hills above Vatolakkos in 1993 out of nostos, the longing to come home to Crete, and his daughter Alexandra has run it since 2007. The winery farms Rhone varieties such as Syrah, Grenache, Mourvedre and Roussanne and bottles them under the Nostos label.
