At every stop, you’ll savor two different local wines (red, rosé, and white), paired with light snacks that perfectly complement the tasting experience.
Along the way, your knowledgeable English-speaking facilitator will share fascinating insights into Greece’s wine heritage, grape-growing regions, and tasting techniques — making this an experience that delights both beginners and wine enthusiasts alike.
