Greece has been shaping the world of wine more than three thousand years. From the myths of Dionysus to the terraced vineyards carved into sun-drenched islands, the country’s viticultural story is woven into its landscape, its people, and its ancient traditions.

At the centre of this exploration are Greece’s most celebrated native grape varieties—each one a distinct voice in the country’s long story.

Famous Greek Grape Varieties
White: Assyrtiko, Moschofilero, Malagousia, Roditis, Vidiano
Red: Xinomavro, Agiorgitiko, Mavrotragano, Liatiko, Mandilaria

These grapes are not merely cultivated—they are guarded traditions, passed from generation to generation. Some thrive in volcanic rock, others flourish in high-altitude vineyards, and some remain rare treasures found only in small pockets of the islands. Their styles range from mineral and crisp to aromatic and floral, from structured and complex to deep and powerful. Each carries the imprint of its birthplace, offering a glimpse into the land that shaped it.

This evening is a celebration of that heritage: the landscapes, the stories, the history, and the enduring spirit of Greek viticulture. It is an invitation to experience the craftsmanship of a culture that has been perfecting its expression for millennia, one grape at a time.
