Small Group Cooking Lesson & Wine Tasting at Award-Winning Winery
Description
This experience stands out by combining authentic, hands-on cooking with an in-depth wine journey at the acclaimed Artemis Karamolegos Winery — one of Santorini’s most awarded wineries. It is not simply a cooking class or a wine tasting. It is a complete gastronomic immersion into Santorini’s culinary heritage, set within a modern winery environment that beautifully reflects the island’s character. Guests begin with a guided tasting of award-winning wines, where the winemaking philosophy and the story behind each label are thoughtfully presented. The volcanic terroir, indigenous grape varieties, and production methods are explained in a way that transforms the tasting into a refined and memorable sensory experience. The cooking lesson is simple, interactive, educational, and above all delicious. Under the guidance of a professional chef, participants prepare and cook four traditional recipes in a hands-on course.

Cooking class @ winery turned out to be private & chef was great! We made Greek salad that we later ate, most fun was cooking pork tenderloin & pictures of flaming dish. We later had meal in their beautiful courtyard, service was excellent. We joined group for wine tasting & all of their wines were delicious! Our group left to go to second winery where the wine was not good.
Chef Chris was so personable and knowledgeable about food, cooking, and wine. The ingredients were fresh off of the beautiful vineyard where the cooking class is held.
