If wine “gladdens your heart”, then the grape harvest in Nemea will sweep you off your feet. Nemea is the biggest vineyard of the Balkan Peninsula and it has a long wine making tradition since antiquity.
According to the myth, Flias, the son of god Dionysus, cultivated the first grapevine here and produced the first wine, the famous wine of Filasion, which is believed to have been served during the symposia organized by King Agamemnon in the palaces of Mycenae.
Today, these celebrations include visits to wineries, wine tasting seminars, tours to vineyards, and a series of cultural performances, concerts, exhibitions, workshops, movie nights, and much more.
They all blend so well together that they offer a taste of pure bliss. In these days you will have an extensive cultural program (Choreographic, musical, theatrical performances, screenings), you will also be able to visit vineyards, visit vinodelʹnyakh and in and, of course, try Greek wine.
