Wine Taste Project
Explore our private wine tasting experience
Most of the flavours you get when you taste wine come through your nose as it's connected to the back of your mouth. The technical term for this is retronasal olfaction. Plus you are also getting your five tastes: bitter, sweet, salt, acid and umami (savouriness), and the physical feel from tannins, alcohol etc.
Our wine taste experiences
Grand Tour
Starting from the North and going to the South, with a small tour around the islands, this wine tasting trip will guide you through the most important Greek grapes, how they came to be and what they represent. Consisting of 8 different wines, you will get to experience all Greece has to
offer.
The Unknowns
There is no better friend for fresh fish than a fine white wine. Lucky for us, we are blessed with both. Here you will taste a blend of locally produced wines, with the least known, but very tasty Greek grapes that will cover every aspect of a refreshing summer wine. Consisting of 6 different wines, you will get to experience a great variety of excellent white wines.
The Assyrtiko
Assyrtiko is the most important and well known Greek grape for a reason. Originating in the rough volcanic terrain of Santorini, it is a grape that offers more than it promises. Consisting of 5 different wines, you will get to experience what a real Assyrtiko means, from Santorini and other parts of Greece as well, enjoying different forms of the same grape.
