Top Tips
During the summer period of December to February the island will be very busy with a lot of visitors. In order to at least make a quieter start to the day I recommend that you try to start the tastings by 10am. That way we can avoid some of the crowds. This will depend on which wineries you wish to visit as most open at 11am but some open at 10am. Another advantage is the potential to take a late lunch after the tastings have been completed.
