The Volcan Winery

With all that volcanic rock, not much grows on Santorini—except for grapes. Locally produced dry white and dessert wines are renowned throughout the country. You can get a taste of both and learn about Greece's winemaking history at Volcan, which is run by the fourth generation of the Koutsoynopoulos family. In a natural cave some 20 feet underground, a quirky museum features displays of animatronic donkeys and of farmers stomping grapes.
