- Jaz JLondon, United Kingdom38 contributionsGreat experience. Don't get ripped off with excursions, just visit yourself.My parter and I visited the vineyard. Its not too far to walk to from OIA (around 30m). A lot of vineyards in Santorini require you to drive or get an overpriced taxi. Who wants to drive when going to taste wine? No one. We walked there and the vineyard is pretty and quaint. There's sunny bits and shady bits, outdoors and indoors to suit all climates. We were greeted with a smile and the staff couldn't be any friendlier. We sat down and the staff explained what they had to offer. They also explained every wine and every cheese that we ordered. There were also 2 friendly cats they own and the staff are quick to ensure that you were OK with them milling around you. You can either just have lunch and some wine or you can do 3 different wine tasting. The cheapest being at €20 for 5 wine tasters (30ml each) up to €34 for 8 wine tasters. We did the 8 wines and they give you a nice booklet with information on all the wines, how it's made etc and a bit for notes for yourself. This was a great addition we thought as we acted like wine connoisseurs. We also ordered a cheese board for €23 which was a decent size, around 6 cheeses, 2 slices each. All in all, it came to €116 for the both of us (we had 2 full glasses of our fave on top). For excursions, you'd expect to spend somewhat €130+ EACH for less. Once again, the service was above and beyond so thank you.Visited March 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten March 31, 2023
- Stefan SSarasota, Florida180 contributionsEcellent wine/food presentation!Wine Experience was excellent: visit to vineyard with fascinating local Wine history then tasting multiple wines with appropriate small plate foods. Five wines, white, red and dessert were very good along with unique dishes matching them perfectly. Definitely worth a visit.Visited April 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten April 6, 2023
- swifsSarasota, Florida224 contributionsFabulous Wine Pairing ExperienceWe had a “beyond expectations”, wonderful experience at Sigalas. We enjoyed the Volcano wine pairing at 12 pm. Our sommelier Labiena (?) was knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The visit began outside in the vineyard with an explanation of the unique character of Santorini wine. The wines went from an introductory sparkling, several whites, to a red and a final vinsanto. The wines were very good- we will look for them at home. What was spectacular and unexpected was the food. Each item was creative and beautifully presented. The ceviche was one of the best ever. The fava bean creation was amazing and so was the dessert. The other staff were also friendly and helpful. We are so glad we gave this Sigalas experience a try. Much better than just a tasting tour of multiple wineries.Visited April 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten April 7, 2023
- The Travelling PiggyLondon, United Kingdom4,222 contributionsSolo experienceI visited this winery alone. The communication beforehand was excellent with the staff. They suggested I picked a package of the wine pairing and do a la carte with the food. I picked the Divers volcano package and you get five glasses. You are given a booklet so you can read about the wines and a brief introduction given beforehand. Other than that you are left to your own devices. Wines were unique and the experience was ok.Visited April 2023Traveled soloWritten April 11, 2023

- Aliza C1 contributionExceptional Sunset Winery TourFrom start to finish, our experience at Domaine Sigalas was exceptional. Sophia was our guide and she did a phenomenal job informing us about the terroir, the wines, and the food during the tour. She also gave us information and some history of the island itself. We chose the sunset tour where we were given a welcome glass of sparkling wine followed by a 5 course meal each paired with a glass of wine. Our favorite wine was the Mavrotragano. We felt the food was a beautiful expression of the land and each wine was perfectly selected to compliment each dish. The sunset in the vineyard and overlooking the ocean was spectacular. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a quality and uniquely tailored winery experience In Santorini.Visited May 2023Traveled with friendsWritten May 14, 2023

We pick the premium wines experience for dinner at 6:00 pm and it was perfect! The wines were very good, and ghe pairing too. The food was excellent - modern style with local ingredients - and Sophia who gave us all information about the wines was very professional and friendly. The set up was perfect : beautiful view of the vineyard, looking at peaceful donkeys far ahead, sunset and the sea! We highly recommend.Visited May 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten May 14, 2023

- lauParis, France5 contributionsA Superb Wine Tasting Experience at Sigalas Estate, SantoriniI recently visited Sigalas Estate in Santorini for a wine tasting, and it was fantastic! The staff was knowledgeable and passionate, guiding us through a delightful selection of wines. The setting was picturesque, with breathtaking views of the Aegean Sea. The wines were exceptional, showcasing the unique flavors of Santorini. The hospitality and attention to detail made the experience truly memorable. I highly recommend Sigalas Estate for a remarkable wine tasting adventure in Santorini.Visited May 2023Written May 18, 2023

Sophia was an excellent hostess, explained all the wines and food pair well. The chef did an excellent job with the food pairings. The ceviche was my favorite and the moussaka was my husband's. We purchased wine to take home. I hope I can find a place to buy more in US.Visited May 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten May 27, 2023

We sat at our reserved table for 15 minutes before a staff member came to take our order. The tasting flights, incredibly, do not include their best wines, which we had had at local restaurants and were planning to purchase in quantity. The flight we chose was unimpressive, with a vinsanto so vile we were longing for a spit bucket but , unlike at every other of the *many* winery tasting rooms we’ve been to, none was provided. The worst thing was that staffmembers sat *smoking* at the table next to ours; this made it impossible for us to taste the wine flight we did order. (The woman who appeared to be the supervisor brought these men a couple of glasses of the Nychteri and accepted a pat on the bottom for her efforts.) The other staff seemed uninterested in explaining the wine, let alone selling any. We had to ask for water to accompany the tasting, and my husband had to go inside to order glasses of the Nychteri to accompany our food, since the waitress didn’t even ask if we wanted to order a glass. Go to any other winery on Santorini instead of this one. A real, and literal, sour note on which to conclude our stay on Santorini.

There seems to be a significant difference to the price that tourists are charged vs the actual price. We were charged 50€ per person for wine tasting that did not include any of the premium wines. In the menu with the price list for the wine tasting we had was 16€ per person. The explanation of the Sigalas domain manager was that the 50€ per person includes a 5-10 minute tour of the wine field. They did not apologise or try to make it up to us.
Additionally the sommelier that served us seemed to be bored and struggled with even the most basic questions.
I suppose because this place has good reviews that perhaps others that had a meal as well had a better experience but for me it felt like a tourist trap.

A great experience from arrival to departure. The staff so friendly and happy, and passed on their knowledge about the vines and wine making process. The differences between the wines explained with each food pairing, with each dish so beautifully presented. The taste was equally as good as the presentation, could not fault it in anyway.
A truly memorable afternoon during our holiday and would recommend. It was well worth travelling from Pyrgos ( not far from other well known wineries), Such a shame we had to leave so quickly due to pre booked taxi!!

Our afternoon at Domaine Sigalas was fantastic. We booked the Volcano Diver's Wine Experience and enjoyed every part of it... the walk through the vineyard, the wine (all 5 of them), the food pairings, and especially the attentiveness of our host. Informative, engaging, and relaxing. I highly recommend this winery over other wineries on the island based on the items I already mentioned and the intimate nature of the entire experience. Please enjoy!!!

This was a great experience! When we booked it said it would take an hour, but in total we were there for just over two hours. In that time, we got a great tour from the guide and sampled 10 or so wines. Each one was delicious and the guide explained the process that went into creating them. It's a beautiful setting and well worth the money!

This winery was recommended by a bar owner in Athens, However, it seems that most of the wineries in Santorini do not like walk-ins and prefer guests who book a tour with some other agency. At Sigalas, we were given a small, cramped table in a far corner, all the tasting wines poured and brought to our table, explanations given and we were left on our own. It is a miracle one of the glasses didn't fall off the table, it was that small!
Compare our experience with larger groups who had come in a tour, the staff explained the characteristics of the wines, one by one, and spent time with them. But, as elsewhere in Santorini, this could be because of racial bias as well
The wines themselves are average to good, but not wow!

Dear SurajShah,
As much as we appreciate the time that you have taken to review us, your review is misleading, sadly - and will be reported to TripAdvisor, especially the "racial bias" part is simply offending and unacceptable.
As it is clearly stated on our website, we serve reservations by absolute priority and it is true that we collaborate with some agencies, but 90% of our visitors are privateers who just book on their own behalf - you should have expected so in a crowded destination such as Santorini.

We did a tasting for two. It came with a brief tour of the vineyard, multiple whites, a red wine, and a dessert wine. It also came paired with multiple food dishes, which were exceptional and just the right amount of food for us.
All tastings were done sitting right next to the vines - very cool.
Hands down the best wines we have had on the island and the views at sunset were incredible.

My wife and I had heard wonderful things about Sigalas before we even got to Santorini from travelers on other islands. We were not disappointed! We were both blown away by the food pairing and how unique their process is compared to other vineyards on the island. We bought a few bottles at the end of the tour for some wine lovers in our family, definitely recommend this place amd we will be coming back again! Thank you!

Not recommended. The winery is about 2-3 miles from Oia and there are hills and steps and you will be on the roadway for part of the time. Taxis is easy to get.

I'm a bit confused by the prices, a lot of reviews mention around 30 Euros for wine tasting but on the website there are only 2 options: 100 Euro or 150 Euro. Is there a menu where you can pick wines and order food separately when you get there?
Don W

Yes, you can taste individual wines and order food without buying the lunch. The lunch is a LOT of food. There are tables set inside and on a terrace. I do not recall the menu but it is not the same as the lunch. It was ala carte. I would suggest an email to the winery for your specific questions.. They speak English and were very responsive. This winery is a long way from the port - 35-40 minutes by taxi as I recall. They buy their grapes from surrounding vineyards, but the tour of the representative vineyard at the winery is worth the time if you are at all interested in this sort of thing.

Hi Kevin P, did you do the wine tasting experience that came with some food pairings (for 100 euro) or the full menu degustation (for 150 euro)? Trying to understand the difference food-wise. Thanks for your help!

The gentleman at the winery encouraged us to share a tasting. I believe we paid $30 Euro total. It included a full flight tasting for us to enjoy at our own pace. We did order some appetizers to munch on, and then a glass of our favorite wine afterwards. All in all it was much less than 100 Euros.

Hi, we came for a wine tasting with Santorini Wine Tours on July 12th. The last one we tasted was a very sweet, barrel aged, gold/brown white wine that was very delicious. I'd like to know the name of this wine because I forgot to write it. Also, I'd like to know if we can find it in Switzerland or order it? Thank you very much!

Domaine Sigalas allows the customer to pick 4, 6, 8 wines to taste and has a nice pairing/food menu as well. We found 6 dry wines - 2 bubbly, 4 red. Lovely shaded spot shown on the pic with vines above.
Kali Riza, 100% Xinomavro, over 100 yrs old vines. #KirYianni was favorite Greece winery. Did not visit Northern Greece where they are, however, #DomaineSigalas Winery is the best winery on Santorini and recommended by #santoriniprincess after a major disappointment at #venetsanowinery (their tasting is only their sweet wines - they will not open their dry reds).
Domaine Sigalas poured their wines (we had 4 of theirs, all very good) and they also pour Kir-Yianni wines - the 2 dry reds from Kir-Yianni were my favorites - both under $20. Also bought another bottle at duty free shop in the airport (similar price).

Do you need to book in advance for a wine tasting or can you just stop by? Estimated time of arrival is 12:30 on a Sunday.

It is always better if you do book at least 1 days in advance. Some days are less busy than others, but why risk it? Especially if you want a table with a sunset view.
