Nestled in the hills of Heraklion, Crete, Scalarea Estate is a winery that blends generations of winemaking tradition with a vision for the future. Rooted in the island’s rich terroir, Scalarea crafts wines that reflect Crete’s unique landscape, combining native grape varieties like Vidiano and Kotsifali with modern blending techniques. Scalarea is an immersive experience. Guests can enjoy gastronomic journeys that celebrate the island’s culinary traditions, unwind in eco-friendly accommodation, and connect with the beauty of Crete in every sip.
Inspired by the Cretan labyrinth, as a metaphor for the journey, Garamond created a new visual identity for the Scalarea brand. Like the labyrinth, with its twists, turns and hidden paths, the Scalerea estate offers moments of exploration, reflection and unexpected discovery. The experience of tasting wine is about more than just the final destination — it’s about the journey, the exploration of flavor and sensation. This was the starting point and the core creative idea behing the new branding for the entire range of products offered by Scalarea.
