Join Greek wine expert Maria Moutsou for a comparison of wines from two of Greece’s best-known grape varieties, made using different methods.
Event details
Wine webinar
In this webinar, Greek wine expert Maria Moutsou will be exploring Greece's best-known white and black grapes - Assyrtiko and Agiorgitiko - and taking a close look at how winemaking practices influence the style of the wines that they produce.
Maria Moutsou will be tasting two wines from each grape; one made by ‘conventional’ yet considerate winemaking and the other made by the application of the strictest of natural winemaking regimes, with 0% sulphites added on bottling.
