Kosmas is so passionate about his country and 'his' wines and unbelievable gifted in passing that passion on to people who know nothing about wines. He takes you by the hand to travel through the history of wine and what you need to experience while tasting (and of course drinking 😉) wine. The wines are incredible and the cheeses you get matches the wines perfectly. To everyone who is considering this wine tasting; don't hesitate, just book it and enjoy the wines, the stories and the good company. It will definitely will be worth it!”
