Wine Tour & Grape Facial Therapy Experience...
Private Wine Tour and grape facial treatmentIf. Ifyou are a wine lover, you should definitely visit this winery. Just an hour away from Athens, in the area of Mytakas in Chalkida there is an amazing winery called “Avantis Estate Winery”, that you will love at first sight. Traditional and modern style, with hospitable staff always willing to welcome you with a big smile.
You will enjoy a guided wine tour at the premises of the vineyard surrounding by acres of vines, you will enjoy different exquisite Greek wines in a modern style wine bar with cheese and cold cuts platters with local gastronomy delicacies. The history of the estate began on March 5, 1994 with the first bottle of Avadis bottled by Grandpa Apostolos. He built a small winery next to his father's house and started his venture full of dreams and passion and the bottling tradition continues to this day. After the wine tasting, a surprise awaits you. You'll relax with a grape facial treatment using cosmetics made from grapes by Mrs Lenga Grigoriadou in a well-designed wellness area that, believe me, is the best point of the wine tour.
