Winery tour Corfu: organic wine and olive tasting

Walk through the cellar and taste the wines where they're made

A winery tour in central Corfu at a 300-acre estate near Giannades includes a 20-minute tour of the wine and olive oil production process, tasting of two wines and olive oil, and an optional light snack with local products. The estate sits 25 minutes by car from Corfu Town in the Ropa Valley, one of the island's most fertile and peaceful areas. A live English-speaking guide leads the tour.

Step-by-step itinerary

Winery and olive oil tasting tour

• Travel to Ropa Valley estate
• Tour winery facilities and cellar
• Learn about wine and olive oil production
• Taste estate's wines and olive oil

The Experience

The estate sprawls across more than 300 acres in the heart of Corfu, much of it pine forest, olive groves and vineyards. Getting there takes about 25 minutes by car from Corfu Town—close enough for a free afternoon, far enough to feel removed from the bustle. The guide walks you through the winery facilities and cellar, explaining how the grapes and olives move from harvest through fermentation to the bottle, then the oil press. It's a working operation, not a museum, so you see the actual setup where production happens.

The tasting follows the tour: you sample two of the estate's wines and their olive oil, paired with a light snack of local products if you choose that option at checkout. Everything made here is organic. The products are also available to buy from the estate's shop if something catches your taste, though purchases aren't included in the tour price.
