Overview
Wine tasting in Santorini is a captivating experience, deeply rooted in the island’s ancient history and unique volcanic terroir. Santorini’s winemaking tradition dates back over 3,000 years, with evidence of vineyards and wine production in ancient ruins. The island’s volcanic soil, shaped by millennia of eruptions, gives Santorini wines their distinctive character. The soil’s rich minerals, combined with the island's dry climate, help produce grapes with exceptional acidity and complexity.
The most famous grape variety grown on the island is Assyrtiko, a white grape that thrives in the harsh volcanic conditions, resulting in crisp, mineral-driven wines with a vibrant freshness.
After a wine tasting in 2 wineries, a meal at a local tavern in Pyrgos village is a perfect way to continue your exploration of Santorini’s flavors. You can enjoy classic favorites like moussaka, souvlaki, tomato keftedes (fried tomato balls), and fava (a creamy split pea puree).
