Explore a hidden gem in the world of wine, Peloponnese, teeming with authenticity and history. The region boasts a rich assortment of native Greek grape varieties, revered as treasures. Uncover these indigenous Peloponnesian grapes that not only embody Greek and Peloponnesian wine diversity but also showcase the significance of unique Greek varietals. Among these, Moschofilero-Mantinia and Agiorgitiko-Nemea stand out as two of the world's top Greek grapes. Mavrodafni is renowned for its Greek dessert wine, while Muscat yields sweet and potentially glorious wines, complemented by numerous rare grape varieties.

Your driver will then transport you to a second winery just a 25-minute drive away in Argos.

After a day filled with wine adventures, make a brief stop in the captivating seaport town of Nafplio, once the first capital of modern Greece. Stroll through its charming streets and experience the enchantment of one of Greece's most picturesque cities.
