Overview

Join us on a walk through the picturesque streets of Athens’ old city “Plaka” and visit 3 unique local wine bars, each with its own history and personal style.
We do not just try wine, we are informed about each variety, the ways it is made.
Get ready to be amazed by the long and very interesting history of Greek wine, which is considered to be one of the best in the world!
We try 6 different varieties of Greek wine all of them grown and produced in Greece by local vintners, each of them chosen for its distinct taste and origin.

What will you taste:
6 glasses (75ml) of wine p.p., 2 glasses of white wine (Moschofilero & Moschato varieties), 2 glasses of red wine(Agiorgitiko Nemeas & Xinomavro Naousas) and 2 glasses of rosé (Mandilaria & Amyntaio’s Xinomavro).

Meze (Greek appetizers) served at each wine bar (rusks or salty sticks, cheese, olives, tomato).

Wonderful wines and wonderful settings. All the hosts at each location were very knowledgeable about the wines and the cheese accompanying the wines. Our host, Xenia, was so personable and made the evening very enjoyable.
