One of the top Greek sommeliers George Spyrou, will welcome you at our beautiful restaurant under the Acropolis with a first aperitif and a brief explanation of the wine map of Greece. The wine map features all major wine producing areas and the wine varieties of each one.

Knowledgeable sommelier...small group..only my partner and i and one other guest. Stunning view of ACROPOLIS from the venue. Afterwards had a great dinner at the restaurant.

The manager, who was our host, was gracious, educational, classy, funny, and fun. The rooftop location was the perfect setting, and the views were incredible. You are poured all Greek wines, and don't let the four glasses fool you as we had way more than four tastings. Did I mention our host was generous with our tastings, too. You are served local cheeses, bread, and olive oil that all enhanced the wines. Don't be surprised if you meet some new friends at your tasting too as we did. It was the perfect experience for our first day in Greece. Oh, and stick around for dinner after your tasting. The food was as amazing as the wine, and every team member at the restaurant made us feel so welcome.

Each of the four wines we tried were delicious. All featured just one Greek grape (no blends). The first was a sparking, dry white. The second was a still dry white with flavors of quince, pear, and pineapple (2nd fave). The third was a very floral rose (1st fave). And the fourth was a more floral white. They paired the wine with brioche bread served with olive oil and salt, cream cheese tarts, a smoked Greek cheese, and a really yummy, salty hard Greek cheese. The tasting portions were generous. Overall, a delicious evening. We ate at the restaurant afterwards which was really nice as well.

Green wines are amazing. This is a great experience to try a variety of Greek wines. The restaurant is near the Acropolis so the view as you’re eating and drinking is gorgeous. The Sommelier is very knowledgeable and does a great job to incorporate the group into his presentation. Worth booking!
