We had the pleasure of attending an exceptional wine tasting event at the Andreou Winery. It truly exceeded every expectation. Held in a beautifully setting in the winery garden and perfectly hosted by the talented, skilled and passionate owner himself, the tone for a memorable evening was set.
We were presented a selection of wines - red, white, rosé and retsina and each wine was introduced and served together with delicious dishes, cooked and presented by the owner´s wonderful wife and daughter. The pairing with the Greek home made dishes was a fantastic touch, enhancing the flavors and adding depth to the tasting experience.The family passion and pride was obvious to all of us.
The atmosphere was extremely welcoming with a lot of love and passion in the air. After a fantastic evening together we left with a deeper appreciation for Greek wine.
Overall, the event was a perfect blend of education, enjoyment, and discovery. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore the Greek world of wine in a relaxed and enriching environment.
And don´t forget to buy some bottles of the wine you appreciated most....
Read moreVisited two weeks ago. While docked in Epidavros, we were looking for some activities to do and thought the 30 min taxi drive to the vineyard could be worth it. In the end, VERY WELL WORTH IT! We were greeted by Nectarios on arrival, who proceeded to show us around, enlightening us with the history of the vineyard and his passion for winemaking. He is incredibly personable and friendly, and a very interesting storyteller! After the tour (and a brief stop to meet the vineyard dogs!) we were led to the wine cave for our tasting. Nectarios' wife Giota had prepared a delicious over-the-top mezze platter for us to enjoy while we tasted the wide variety of wines. We were amazed at the quality of the wines (favorites were Feffaropetra, Kalypso, and Aggelioforos), which were all somehow made even better with the backstory of each explained. Overall, we would all highly recommend this experience!! Thank you very much Nectarios and Giota!
Tip if taking a taxi from Epidavros or elsewhere: we were able to negotiate very fair prices for three drivers to bring us there, wait for us during our tasting, and...
Read moreWe had an absolutely amazing time. Very personalised as we booked our wine tasting evening during October, so it was just the 3 of us ( my partner and I and the owner) and dog Bobby keeping an eye on intoxication levels from the cellar entry :) Food was delicious and Wine was absolutely "diwine" 😍
If I were to recommend something different... try pine sap flavour and the desert wine. The first tastes like Christmas 🎄 in the bottle the latter is pure liquid sunshine laced with peach flavour.
Got few bottles to go and even sent pine specials to my family in central Europe. It arrived in perfect condition in no time 👌, they are saving it for Xmas of course, how fitting!! :)
What I enjoyed most is the family daringly introduced pine sap and herbal twist to traditional wine. Awesome 👌
The owners wife should open cookery class of her own. She prepared some delicious eggplant and courgette dishes to accompany the wine while her mum prepared home made feta cheese 🧀.
Both food and wine - treassures passed on from generation to generations ♡ loved it! Thank you for Lovely evening. Trish and Des...
