Greece's largest organic winery, Porto Carras was founded in 1970, and now grows 28 different grapes across 47.5 hilly square kilometres on Sithonia's west coast. Tastings begin at €6, and delectable chocolates and oils are also sold. Visits to the plantings and the spectacular Villa Galini, one-time home to Salvador Dalí, can be prearranged.
