Everything from understanding the origins, indigenous grapes and their characteristics, an influence of terroir and more, through to life’s simpler and divine pleasures of exemplary food and a jubilant atmosphere.

Not forgetting the fantastic contribution from the guest speakers and hosts, generously sharing their insightful knowledge and stories with all of the festival audience.

Our passion has always been to champion, promote and dispense the very best Greek food and wine. This philosophy is integral to the values at our restaurant bar & delicatessen. So naturally our Festival and joyful celebration originate from the same approach and we hope to bring you a captivating weekend.”

    This is very different if no tickets for tasting then how to make sure everyone can try? I will trust and try to visit but I am hard to believe no tickets for tasting like all other shows.
