Have you ever tried Greek wines? If yes then I am sure you will be excited for this event! If not, then now is your chance to try three of the most talked about indigenous Greek grape varieties and see what you have been missing out on all this time!
Geneva Wine Society has teamed up with Smyrliadis SA, a Greek wine importing company, to bring you 3 amazing wines from 3 charming and intriguing wine regions. An unconventional Asyrtiko from the volcanic island of Santorini, an elegant and captivating Agiorgitiko from Nemea and a formidable Xinomauro from Amydeon will be our guides as we explore Greece’s intriguing wine history and regions.
The cost is 100 CHF and it includes:
- delivery of the 3 wines to your door. — There is no need to open all three bottles on the same night but if you decide to open them you can keep them in the fridge for at least a week.
- a fun online wine tasting full of very useful information on how to evaluate wine and an overview of Greek wine regions and varieties,
- wine tasting notes and a wine tasting guide and wine vocabulary,
- food pairing ideas to prepare before the tasting if you want to nibble on something while we drink the wines
