About the Experience
Gentilini is a small, boutique, family run winery that produces top quality, exciting and exceptional wines while promoting the unique flavours and aromas of the local Kefalonian varieties. Our aim is to focus on your enjoyment so you leave us feeling that you have experienced something very special. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff welcome you and guide you around our estate vineyards and our winery*, before returning to our garden for a glass of prosecco and the wine tasting.
This tasting includes 7 limited production wines and a tasting of wine straight from the barrels. This is followed by a tasting of two extra virgin olive oils and our 12-year-old balsamic vinegar. The tasting is accompanied by our delicious dips, stuffed grape leaves and deli platter.
