Wine Museum Koutsogiannopoulos
Wine tasting at a local Santorini winery, where you'll learn about the unique qualities of Santorini wines and why they taste so good. Santorini is famous for its exceptional quality wines with unique character. The island’s vineyards are the oldest in Greece, some with trees planted over 300 years ago. Learn about Santorini wines and how they owe their quality to the volcanic soil of the island and its microclimate. This includes severe droughts, strong winds, and dense night mists from the volcanic caldera, providing just enough moisture for the grape crop. Sample some of the finest Santorini wines and learn about the unique conditions that make the island’s wines so special. Did you know that the roots of the grapevines receive all their necessary moisture from the atmosphere and are truly epiphytic, harvesting everything they need from the air without ever being watered?

Additional Information
If you are a cruise ship passengers, meeting point is: At the exit of the cable car (up the Cliffside), Fira . Good to Know: Individual cruise passengers disembark in Santorini by tender boats arriving only at the old port of Fira. To find the exit of the cable car in Fira follow these steps: • Take a tender boat from your cruise ship • Once ashore, go to the cable car • Paying a ticket of 6 Euros per person (one way) take a cable car ride up to Fira town (3 min.) • Come out of the cable car building • Behind the gate our guide or driver are waiting for you with Omega Travel sign with your name on it. Only passengers arriving to Santorini in organized groups or acquiring shore excursions on board disembark at Athinios port. These travelers get off the ship first. All the rest are considered to be individual travelers and disembark only at the old port of Fira. The donkeys are arriving to a different place in Fira, not to the cable car exit. The stairs bring you next to the cable car exit but we strongly recommend to use the cable car for your comfort.
