What you can expect

Treat your senses to an exclusive wine tasting and culinary journey designed for food lovers and wine enthusiasts alike. Set in a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere next to the sea, this intimate experience pairs exceptional local wines with a carefully curated 5-course menu of fresh, modern Mediterranean flavours. It is the perfect blend of great wine, gourmet storytelling, and warm hospitality.

Your journey begins with a crisp glass of premium Greek sparkling wine, perfectly matched with savoury tartlets topped with rich taramosalata, marinated anchovy, and a touch of lime zest. This vibrant combination offers a delightful burst of acidity and freshness, expertly prepping your palate for the culinary delights ahead.

Next, you will dive into local traditions with a glass of Vidiano from the renowned Alexakis Winery. This iconic Cretan white wine, celebrated for its rich body and elegant texture, beautifully pairs with authentic Greek fava beans topped with caramelised onions and tender, perfectly grilled octopus.

To keep the momentum going, you will refresh your senses with a vibrant, colourful Tabouleh salad packed with quinoa, fresh herbs, and a tangy orange dressing. This light and aromatic course is elegantly elevated by a glass of dry Liatiko Rosé, which brings bright notes of red fruits and a crisp summer breeze directly to your glass.

For the main highlight of the experience, you will savour a structured glass of Assyrtiko, expertly paired with succulent grilled salmon, rich smoked aubergine puree, and premium sushi rice. The wine’s distinct minerality and vibrant acidity cut through the richness of the salmon and beautifully complement the deep, smoky notes of the aubergine.

To conclude your experience on a sweet note, you will indulge in a delicate Pavlova featuring velvety cream cheese and wild forest fruits. This elegant dessert is paired with the aromatic, sweet notes of a premium late-harvest Moschato Spinas, bringing a luxurious end to your tasting. Whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or simply looking for a delicious afternoon activity, this journey promises an unforgettable gastronomic memory.
