In Santorini there might be lots of activities and places to visit, however a -must do- activity is a Wine tour . Are you ready for an adventurous day full of joy and flavors that will make your stay in Santorini unforgettable?

Visiting just one winery is not enough to appreciate what winemakers and nature can offer.

On this private tour, you’ll have the chance to visit more than one private wine factory and make many photos as you wish with the landscapes and the wines, so that your tour can be remarkable.

An adventurous day can begin with our first winery -to go which is no other than a traditional one. There you can learn about the specific conditions that are required for growing the grapes on the volcanic soil and discover the unique process of winemaking.

Therefore, you can visit a local vineyard, explore a vineyard with a guide and walk around wine cellars

At a first place, you will have the opportunity to see what it takes to grow the most ancient grape varieties in Europe, some dating back to more than 3600 years in history in this special wine-growing region of Greece. .

The unique climate of the island, rich in volcanic soil sustains our ancient selections. In fact, the grapes need little human intervention and literally grow on their own. The soil is the key and makes the wine even more particular, standing out from the rest not only in Greece but also worldwide. The secrets of quality wine making are passed down from one generation to the next.

Nowadays, you often see the winemakers’ children and grandchildren also devoted to wine production, contributing their ideas, especially on how to market the product.

There are over fifty grape varieties in Santorini, but winemakers generally use about ten of them.

Three of the most famous types of Santorinian wine that is worthy to give a try are:

• Assyrtiko (often under the trade name of ‘Santorini’),
• Nychteri (the ‘night’ wine)
• Vinsanto (Vino di Santo – ‘Santorinian Wine’).

(The ingredients are Athiri, Aidani and Assyrtiko grapes.)

Our second destination is going to be an underground Winery which is located up to the new port of Athinios.

It was built in 1947 by Venetsanos family and became the first industrial winery on the island.

Its most distinguished feature is the structural design, which essentially used gravity, facilitating energy efficiency, at a time when access to electricity and other energy sources was very limited.

Besides the great history in winemaking, it has the greatest view. The Caldera View.
