Wine Tasting in Amorgos: Cycladic Wines at Sunset

Taste Cycladic wines paired with island cheeses and cold cuts as the sun sets

A wine tasting in Amorgos where you sample 3 or 5 carefully selected Cycladic wines paired with local cheeses, artisanal cold cuts and traditional small bites, guided by a knowledgeable local wine host as the sun sets over the Aegean. The tasting lasts around two hours and includes stories of indigenous grape varieties, island terroirs and the small family wineries that sustain Cycladic winemaking. You choose between 3 or 5 wines at checkout. Transfers to and from the tasting location are available upon request.

The experience

What makes Cycladic wine different from what you'll find elsewhere? A local wine host walks you through the answer over two hours, introducing you to indigenous grape varieties and the specific terroir of Amorgos as the sun begins to drop toward the sea. You'll taste either three or five wines, your choice at checkout, each one paired with local cheeses, artisanal cold cuts and traditional Amorgian bites that show how the island's food and wine belong together. The host shares the stories behind each bottle: which family has kept the vineyard going, what makes their practices sustainable, how the island's soil and climate shape what grows there.

This is not a formal tasting room experience. You're tasting at a relaxed pace, with sea views and the kind of attention to detail that comes from someone who knows these producers personally. The cheeses and cold cuts are sourced locally, and the small bites follow traditional recipes. By the end, you'll have a sense of how Amorgos tastes, not just the wines, but the whole picture of how people here eat and drink.
