Athens: Wine Workshop + Tastings

Master Greek wine

Greece offers wine experiences found nowhere else: indigenous grapes with names you will not recognise, volcanic soils that impart unique minerality, and traditions stretching back to antiquity when Greeks spread wine culture across the Mediterranean. This 2-hour workshop goes deeper than a simple tasting, teaching you to understand and appreciate Greek wine like a knowledgeable local.

The workshop

Led by an expert sommelier, the session covers Greek wine regions from the sun-baked islands to the cool mountains, indigenous grape varieties that thrive nowhere else, and how to pair Greek wines with food both traditional and modern. You taste multiple wines as the workshop progresses, learning to identify characteristics, recognise quality, and understand what makes each wine distinctive.

What you will learn

By the end of two hours, you understand why Santorini's Assyrtiko tastes like nowhere else, what gives Naoussa's Xinomavro its age-worthy structure, and how Moschofilero's aromatics differ from international varieties. You learn to read Greek wine labels, navigate restaurant wine lists, and select bottles that match your preferences. The knowledge enhances every future glass you drink.

Practical wine education

The workshop balances theory with tasting, ensuring you remember what you learn by connecting it to sensory experience. You leave with notes, recommendations, and confidence to explore Greek wine independently.
