With the rising Vidiano drifting the whole Cretan vineyard in its frantic course, it seems to have conquered the second position among Greek white varieties, right behind Assyrtiko. Complex, dynamic and expressive, it has won the hearts of wine lovers both in Greece and abroad. No wonder it has become the favorite choice of most foreign visitors in our wine tastings.
The Cretan winemakers gradually realize the gem they have in their hands and invest in it, highlighting the most modern winemaking techniques.
Among them, the low-key oenologist Vassilis Laderos, who is working with some of the most famous wineries of Crete producing famous wines. In 1998 they decided to start their own effort founding Ideon Winery, along with his wife Kalliopi Volitaki who is also an oenologist. They cultivated mainly Cretan indigenous varieties with great attention in the Venerato area in Heraklion, Crete along with some French.
A simple label for a wine that is just the opposite. After many trials, Vidiano 2017 by Idea Winery is one of the best Vidiano of the year.
Its crazy course has started for good. Prepare yourself!
