A full-day immersion into Greece’s most iconic red wine region.

Description

Indulge in the most complete and refined wine journey Nemea has to offer — an exclusive, full-day experience designed for true wine lovers and curious explorers alike.

Your day begins with a scenic drive through the heart of the Peloponnesian vineyards, heading toward the rolling hills of Nemea, home to Greece’s legendary Agiorgitiko grape. Your first stop is a prestigious hillside winery known for its architectural elegance and sweeping views. There, you’ll enjoy a private tour of the cellar and production areas, followed by a multi-course wine pairing menu curated by expert chefs and sommeliers — an elevated gastronomic experience that celebrates the harmony between wine and local flavors.

In the afternoon, your journey continues to a second distinguished winery with deep roots in the region’s winemaking tradition. After a warm welcome and a guided walk through the vineyards and facilities, you'll be offered a premium wine tasting of selected labels. The experience is complemented by a dessert wine & artisanal chocolate pairing, or, alternatively, a guided olive oil tasting — depending on your preference or the season.

Throughout the day, you'll discover not only the complexity of Agiorgitiko, but also the deep connection between wine, land, and heritage that makes Nemea a destination in itself.

This is more than a tasting — it's a story in two chapters, crafted to awaken your palate and immerse you in the soul of Greek wine.

The Greek word for vine — source of the term ampelography, the study of grape varieties.

🍷 Krater → From the Greek ‘κρατήρ’
A large vessel used to mix wine with water during symposia — the heart of ancient wine culture.

🍾 Retsina → From ‘ῥητίνη’ (retini)
