Join us as we explore some of the treasures of Greece and Cyprus. We’ll take you on a journey, as we taste through a flight of wines produced with indigenous grapes that have never been grown outside of their countries. We’ll have Greek and Cypriot inspired snacks on hand to demonstrate why these unique wines go so well with food.
