Wines and wine areas near Santorini
Names to look for on a tour itinerary or a wine list:
- Assyrtiko
- Santorini's crisp, mineral white grape, grown in basket-shaped vines on volcanic soil.
How to pick a good wine tour
- Count the wineries: three tastings in a day is comfortable; five turns into a rush.
- Check whether lunch is included. A long tasting on an empty stomach is the most common complaint.
- Small-group and private tours can change the route; big coach tours keep to a fixed schedule.
- Harvest season brings the most activity at wineries but also the busiest roads and cellar doors.
