The New Wines of Greece

Time/Date: 0930-1830, 29th May (Tuesday)
Place: Booth Greek Pavilion, GH50, Vinexpo

If you're hunting something out of the ordinary priced attractively for its value, check out the Greek Pavillion. This year the forerunners of the new generation of Greek winemakers will be showing fine examples of the extraordinary wines produced currently in Greece. Sample the rare indigenous Greek grapes like Assyrtico, Moschofilero, Agiorgitiko, and Xinomavro from classical exotic places like Santorini, Mantinia, Nemea, and Naoussa. Over the last two decades advances in viticulture and winemaking have resulted in a remarkable upgrade of quality.

We welcome you for a series of informal guided tastings of the hundreds of great value wines shown this year for the first time in Asia.
