About the experience
Discover another side of Santorini through its legendary vineyards and volcanic wines.
Your Santorini Wine Experience takes you on a journey through three carefully selected wineries, where tradition, volcanic soil and generations of winemaking come together. Travel comfortably across the island while discovering why Santorini's vineyards are unlike almost anywhere else in the world. Learn about the traditional basket-shaped vines, known locally as "kouloura", and how Santorini's volcanic landscape, strong winds and dry climate have shaped its distinctive wines for centuries.
At each winery you will be introduced to a selection of local wines, including varieties such as Assyrtiko and traditional dessert wines, while learning about the production, ageing and history behind each label. Throughout the experience, wine tastings are accompanied by selected local bites, cheeses and traditional Greek products that complement the wines.
