Our Wine & Philosophy retreat made it in the Decanter luxe list: Summer 2024

The latest in our seasonal series collating luxury wine experiences in the most coveted of cellars, vineyards and must-visit destinations across the globe. It’s the luxe list.” – Lane Nieset

“Inspired by Ancient Greece’s wine-fuelled symposiums, each evening of the six-day Wine and Philosophy: A Euphoric Retreat for the Soul (which will run from 25-30 October) will include philosophy discussions led by Durham University Classics professor Edith Hall.

“Guests can also take in the local culture and wine history of the Peloponnese on visits to wineries like Mercouri Estate and Brintzikis Estate before joining retreat leaders – renowned wine critic and author Jancis Robinson MW, and Best Sommelier of the World 2023 Raimonds Tomsons – for wine tasting and pairing workshops.”

Combining the pleasures of fine wine with deep philosophical insights, this retreat is designed to nourish both mind and spirit. It aims to harmonize sensory pleasures and intellectual stimulation, leading to a state of euphoria—a profound sense of well-being and contentment.

Join us in raising a glass to the timeless allure of wine, where every sip is a celebration of life. This six-day retreat, promises an unforgettable escape for wine enthusiasts, leaving you deeply connected to the essence of wine and its soulful journey. Assistant Expert Sommelier Christos Papadopoulos will also be present to enhance the experience.
