The Wine CEO Episode #131: It's a blessing and a curse. Family Wineries with Dourakis Family Winery

Have you ever thought that owning a winery would be a fun and glamorous job? What most people don't think about is the incredibly hard work that goes into every aspect of running your own business. Instead of working 8 hours a day, you work 24/7 working odd jobs and doing anything to ensure your business is successful. This week on the show, Sarah interviews Antonis and Evie Dourakis of the Dourakis Family Winery in Crete, Greece. Antonis and Evie discuss the blessings and the challenges of running a family winery. From respecting tradition, upsetting family, and constantly evolving to stay relevant, Evie and Antonis discuss their experience of growing up in a family with a generational winery. It's a conversation you don't want to miss, so grab your favorite glass of wine and press play now!
