Drink Seminar: The Cradle of Wine

Event Description

Discover the liquid history of wine in this lively session that charts a fascinating journey back to the very dawn of winemaking, almost 9,000 years ago. We will explore ancient traditions born thousands of years ago in Armenia and Georgia, tracking their evolution through the Middle East and ancient Greece. Guided by DJ’s expert insights, we’ll taste six compelling wines, spanning vibrant whites, a skin-contact pink, and structured reds that define the ancient world.
