Wines of Greece

Dionysius, sometimes known by his Roman name Bacchus, was the ancient Greek mythological god of wine, worshipped as protector of the vineyards.  Wine festivals were celebrated with special customs and rituals at each phase of the vines growth.  The mythical king of Athens, Amphictyon, supposedly was the first to mix water with wine, thereby setting the precedent for Greeks respect towards the power of alcohol.  The phrase “watered wine” dates from this time.

Today in Greece, as in ancient times, wine is considered an enhancement to the zest of living, and inebriation is not acceptable behavior.  Plato expressed the Greek attitude best when he said “Wine causes most drinkers who have no sense to think that they have.”

Greece produces many excellent wines, the most notable being retsina, mavrodaphne and muscatel.  Retsina, with a taste often compared to turpentine, is the most well known.  It owes its taste to the resin used to give it a subtle aroma and flavor.  It is a light wine, better when served chilled, and comes in golden, red or rose hues.  

A drink equally well known both in and outside of Greece in ouzo.  A real thirst quencher, it’s a clear, potent spirit distilled from grape mash and lightly flavored with anise.  

Grape vines flourish in the rolling hills of Greece, and the people believe their grapes, as well as their wines, are among the best in the world.
