The recommended serving temperature for Douloufakis Dafnios Liatiko is approximately 17°C. Serving the wine at this temperature allows its complex aromas and flavors to be fully appreciated. To achieve this, you can chill the bottle in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes before serving. Using a large tulip-shaped glass and decanting the wine can further enhance its aromatic profile and soften the tannins, providing a more rounded taste experience. We recommend pairing Doulfakis Dafinos Liatiko with anglerfish with sauce armoricaine, cured meat, roasted or grilled red meat for an enhanced dining experience.
In 1930, grandfather Dimitris Douloufakis began producing wine using traditional Cretan methods. Times have since changed, and the winery is now managed by grandson Nikos Douloufakis and his wife. They have fully modernized the estate, crafting high-quality wines from their own vineyards. The family owns approximately 10 hectares of vineyards, ensuring exceptional wines rooted in tradition and innovation.
