Truth comes out in wine. Pliny the Elder

How to Become a Wine-Tester? (by Tasting Award-Winning Greek Wines)

Υou will learn, taste award-winning wines, acquire new skills as a wine-tester, and most of all have fun.

We are going to introduce you to the wine tasting procedure with a quick presentation, by tasting one wine as being a student in a typical wine tasting class.

Then, we will forget all about it, try to understand the wine and explore our senses by playing creative wine games.

The aim is to understand the aromas, the hidden flavours and eventually approach the wine from its pleasant and relaxed side.

What will be Provided?

Several glasses of more than five top quality and award-winning wines, with different aromas, flavour and color.

Who can Participate in this Experience?

This experience is for both connoisseurs and non-connoisseurs, wine lovers and people that want to unlock some of the mysteries around wine. It is also for everyone who, out of pure curiosity, wants to understand why there is so much discussion about wine.

Note: In case you want something challenging, this experience can be adjusted to your level of knowledge!

«A wonderful blend!»

(✮✮✮✮✮«It all starts with a place a little hidden from the throngs… and when you find it, the exhibition is simply a hidden gem. It was a very interesting experience about the research and developments towards bringing the Ancient Greek music back to life. A wonderful blend of history, culture and music goes into the personal presentation. Well worth fitting into your schedule!»
