Voroina travel to Athens

Monday January 30, 2023 – Great Britain Hotel

From the slopes of Olympus to the mountain peaks of Pindos and from there to the plateau of Amyntaios and throughout Macedonia, in its lakeside, coastal and mountain vineyards, the wonderful wines and excellent spirits of the “Winemakers of Northern Greece”, in the North of Athens, on Monday January 30, 2023!

The day where all wine lovers, consumers and professionals from the field of catering and wine trade are waiting, is set for Monday January 30, from 12 noon to 8 pm, at the “home” of the Northern Wines, at the hotel Great Britain, in Syntagma Square.

After all, the North Wines of Athens marked the historic journey of the wine events of all the winemaking regions of the country and were a model for many other wine events, as early as January 2005, when they were held for the first time.

This year’s Northern Wines aspire to be bright and offer their visitors the opportunity, with their tour of the Winemakers’ tables, to taste the richness of the vineyard of Northern Greece and the varieties grown there, in this unique geophysical relief map of the country.

Dry, white, rosé, red, blanc de noir and orange, sparkling white, rosé and red wines, semi-dry, semi-sweet and sweet (natural or natural), single varietal and in blends, but also grape spirits up to long-term aging, some only from range of the North.

Together, the new proposals and trends!

Above all, however, visitors to Boroina will have the opportunity to meet the creators of the wonderful wines and spirits, which have stood out for years, have loved and choose to enjoy, on holidays, in personal moments, as a toast, as a gift.

At the same time, to be informed about the new creations, new labels and styles of wines, the evolution of the vintages of the last years, now in the bottle. To test old vintages, to compare the succession between vertical rows or the terroir of a place between horizontal tests.

Besides, the “Winemakers of Northern Greece” are responsible for several wine milestones in the course of Greek wine, as it has developed in recent decades.
