Shore Excursion Kefaonia, Wine Tour & Wine Tasting...
4 Hours shore excursion: The vineyard we are going to visit was built on 1863 and is so nice that you think that are placed in a scenery from the movie Mamma Mia! We combine a visit at Assos which is one of the small, picturesque and charming village in Kefalonia and finally we will have a short stop for photos at “Myrtos beach’ which has been voted 12 times as the best Greek beach!
The wine produced in this unique winery is wonderful with an extraordinarily rich and flourishing taste, and what makes this place even more exquisite is the owners of it. During the wine tour you will have the chance to learn the kind of herbs that grow near the vineyard and affect the taste of the wine which is also remarkably interesting. And of course, the tour will end, with everybody sitting around a big table, tasting the wine along with a taste of local cheese and delicious food product.
