The hills surrounding the Archanes region on the south and west sides act as protection from the North African winds. The vineyards face the north and east and have cooler winds coming from the Aegean. These winds temper the hot sunshine in the summer and allow the grapes to develop acidity and flavour slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The soils of the Archanes region are made of clay and limestone, and they retain water, so they store precipitation from the winter rains. This means that the vines remain hydrated throughout the summer, rarely needing extra irrigation.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2>Key Highlights and Experiences in the Archanes Wine Region\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>While you are enjoying your \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbnbstay.co.uk\u002Fgreece\u002Fcrete\">\u003Cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Crete villa holiday\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa> in the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbnbstay.co.uk\u002Fproperty\u002Fsearch?area=heraklion\">\u003Cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Heraklion\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa> region, there are other things to enjoy, as well as wine tasting and exploring the town of Archanes.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cfigure data-trix-attachment='{\"contentType\":\"image\u002Fjpeg\",\"filename\":\"AdobeStock_1717779491.jpeg\",\"height\":3584,\"href\":\"https:\u002F\u002Fbnbstay.co.uk\u002Fstorage\u002Fblog-attachments\u002FdTk1sNoU6mOuCYH6oXNTkNJ8v8PQPjFQ96hpkJfs.webp\",\"url\":\"https:\u002F\u002Fbnbstay.co.uk\u002Fstorage\u002Fblog-attachments\u002FdTk1sNoU6mOuCYH6oXNTkNJ8v8PQPjFQ96hpkJfs.webp\",\"width\":5376}' data-trix-content-type=\"image\u002Fjpeg\" data-trix-attributes='{\"caption\":\"Bunches of red and green grapes ripening in an Archanes vineyard\",\"presentation\":\"gallery\"}' class=\"attachment attachment--preview attachment--jpeg\">\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbnbstay.co.uk\u002Fstorage\u002Fblog-attachments\u002FdTk1sNoU6mOuCYH6oXNTkNJ8v8PQPjFQ96hpkJfs.webp\">\u003Cimg src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fbnbstay.co.uk\u002Fstorage\u002Fblog-attachments\u002FdTk1sNoU6mOuCYH6oXNTkNJ8v8PQPjFQ96hpkJfs.webp\" width=\"5376\" height=\"3584\" alt=\"Bunches of red and green grapes ripening in an Archanes vineyard\">\u003Cfigcaption class=\"attachment__caption attachment__caption--edited\">Bunches of red and green grapes ripening in an Archanes vineyard\u003C\u002Ffigcaption>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cstrong>The Vathipetro Temple and Press\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Vathipetro temple and wine press are worth visiting, as it is the oldest wine press in the country.
