Santorini Wine Tasting 2023

 

Salon de dégustation des vins de Santorin 

Santorini Wine Tasting
May 1st, 2023

Santorini is an island in the southern Aegean Sea, about 200 km southeast from the mainland Greece. Because of its volcanic nature, it has a mineral-rich soil. In the combination with a very favorable climate, it is a perfect place to cultivate grapes and produce wine. There is a number of heritage vineyards with vigorous wine plants some even 200 years old. Their roots have grown very deep into the soil reaching many mineral-rich layers. This produces very complex and rich-tasting wines with a wide gamut of sensations and a unique bouquet. These vintages offer very exceptional, and in some cases pleasantly unusual wine tasting experience. The bouquet of sensations covers the back of the mouth and does not quickly evaporates as with many other wines but linger on and on.



The event was held at Espace Rodier. The following wine producers and/or their Quebec distributors were present:

Santo Wines / Estate Argyros Domaine Sigalas / Gaia Wines

See below the additional photos of the Santorini Wine Tasting. The event was well organized and very much appreciated by all attended. There were many questions asked and a lot of information exchanged about these exceptional wines. It was the perfect opportunity for the professionals to meet, to exchange their opinions, and enjoy new experiences tasting the wines featured by four Santorini vineyards.









The delicious food generously provided by the organizers of the event was much appreciated by all who attended.
