Vassilakis Estate

An estate story that began in 1865.

Historic roots, family groves and a modern commitment to quality meet in the first oil of the season.

Why we chose them

A long memory, expressed with modern precision.

Vassilakis Estate shows how Cretan tradition can move forward without losing its character. The family's original 1865 press anchors the story, while today's facilities and quality systems make that heritage relevant to a modern international table.

A living estate

From a stone press to a contemporary family estate.

The Vassilakis family story reaches back to an olive press built in 1865. In Agia Sophia, Mirabello, that history remains visible—not as nostalgia, but as the foundation of an estate still centered on olives and hospitality.
