Wine Tasting Santorini: Day or Sunset Private Tour

About this experience

Embark on a captivating Santorini sunset wine tour starting with convenient pickups from most hotels across the island. Delve into an afternoon of wine tasting and discovery as you traverse through picturesque dry fields and vineyards, guided by your knowledgeable driver and wine connoisseur. Learn about the unique winemaking practices of Santorini and the area's distinctive viticulture amidst its volcanic aspa soil. Discover how the island's grapes, grown in low-lying baskets, retain moisture crucial for their growth, resulting in wines imbued with rich mineral flavors and delicate notes. Explore the cellars of three family-owned wineries, gaining insight into the entire winemaking process from grape harvesting to wine maturation. Wander through one of the estates' volcanic vineyards alongside your guide, sampling up to 12 different varieties of Santorini wine, including the renowned regional vinsanto and assyrtiko. Cap off your wine tour at the final estate, where you'll indulge in an alfresco wine tasting on an open patio. Pair your wine with delectable tapas as you soak in the breathtaking views of the sun setting over the Santorini caldera. After an enriching half-day experience, your Santorini winery tour concludes with a return to your original pickup point, leaving you with lasting memories of this exquisite wine-filled journey.
