Santorini Wine Secrets

Overview

Santorini not only boasts of breathtaking views but produces a range of wines from 40 different indigenous grape varieties (though not all are cultivated). Famous for its Assyrtiko wine, the production process is rooted in the traditions of the island, with each winery offering a rich and storied history as well as a tasting experience. This tour takes you on a journey through the island that pairs picturesque views with exceptional quality wines. Wine cultivation on Santorini began with the Venetian occupation of the island; the Venetians adeptly understood that the mineral-rich volcanic soil of the island would yield the finest wines. You will tour 3 uniquely distinct wineries; we will travel across the island to experience the breadth of what Santorini has to offer in wine-making. Please note that depending on the availability of the wineries in the schedule one or more may change with Chatzidakis, Gavalas, Vassaltis and Karamolegos wineries.
