There is still room for you to join us as we taste classic Crete wines!⁠
⁠
Crete boasts one of the oldest wine making traditions in the world, dating back to the bronze age. The latest generation of winemakers blend international perspective with traditional techniques and indigenous grapes to create a new future for the island’s wine industry. Cretan varieties include Kotsifali, a vibrant, plummy red often blended with richer, more structured wines like tannic native grape Mandilaria. Liatiko, one of Greece’s oldest varieties, is another red to watch as some compare its transparency and freshness to Pinot Noir.⁠

South Africa has a delicious assortment of foods, including great vegetarian options! Some of their most famous meals include Bunny Chow (no bunnies involved!) a bread bowl filled with meat or veggie spicy curry (second photo). Bobotie is their national dish of minced meat simmering with curry spices, dried fruit, and baked with an egg and milk mixture on top. Chakalaka & Pap (last photo) is a veggie dish made of onions, tomatoes, peppers, carrots, beans, spices and is a porridge similar to American grits. For dessert, international influence has created a twist on the British custard tart called Melktert, and a sweet Dutch Malva pudding. ⁠

It's impossible to sum up our magical time in Emilia Romanga. But a good start is with the people. We laughed, bonded, walked, ate, and learned! And the people we met and learned from won't be soon forgotten. Cooks, wine makers, truffle hunters, cheese makers, and most memorable of all, our our amazing guide Fabio! .
