Koutsoyannopoulos is not solely a winery, but also a winding, 300m-long cave-styled museum nestled 8m underground. The museum depicts the history of winemaking on the island through images, artifacts, and models of life in the 1600’s wine trade.
Museum tours are conducted through an audio guide available in 14 different languages, and a guidebook is also available in 22 languages. The winery and museum remains open year-round, with slightly abbreviated hours in the off-season.
Koutsoyannopoulos Winery produces a variety of wines: young and aged white, young and aged red, rosé, sweet, and semisweet. Many indigenous grapes are utilized, most commonly assyrtiko and aithani. Multiple tasting possibilities are available, varying in price based on the number of bottles sampled; tasting costs incorporate a museum tour.
Weddings and events can be hosted at Koutsoyannopoulos, and groups can arrange a private grape-treading experience in advance. Ample parking is available at the museum, though Koutsoyannopoulos is also conveniently accessed via bus on the Fira-Kamari route.
