Built into the caldera cliff above Athinios port in the late 1940s, Venetsanos was Santorini's first industrial winery and still runs in the founding family's hands. Gravity-fed cellars carved into the rock produce crisp Assyrtiko and a deep, traditional Vinsanto, best met on the dramatic terrace at sunset. A seasonal Sunset Terrace kitchen serves light dinners and local plates to pair with the flights.

Editor's Tip

Open most of the year, closed mid-December to mid-January; the Sunset Terrace dinners run summer only, so reserve a caldera-facing table ahead.
