The Best Wine Bars in Athens, Greece
"For an encyclopedic wine list: Vintage Wine Bar and Bistro. Settle into one of Vintage’s brown leather chairs and get cozy with the novel-length wine list. This wine bistro, as it bills itself, boasts selections from around the world, but you’ll want to hone in on the Greek wines. Grouped geographically, it illustrates the widespread nature of Greek viticulture. But even more impressive is the number of back vintages, both by the glass, (such as a 2015 Thrapsathiri/Vilana blend from boutique producer Ktima Oikonomou in Sitia in Crete) and by the bottle (we spotted 2014 -2017 vintages of Vidiano, a variety that’s poised to be Crete’s signature white grape, from renowned estate Douloufakis.)"
