Greek Wine & Mythology Night was a food & drink event hosted by the Embassy of Greece in Washington, D.C. It took place on Friday, June 5, 2026 at 7:00 PM. Admission was $40. Nearest Metro: 10-min walk from Dupont Circle (Red).
Embark on a unique cultural journey that combines the rich traditions of Greek winemaking with the timeless stories of ancient mythology. This evening event offers tastings of wines from three renowned Greek regions: the volcanic soils of Santorini, the diverse terroir of Crete, and the historic vineyards of Nemea.
The experience is guided by both an expert sommelier and a classicist, creating a distinctive blend of wine education and mythological storytelling. As you sample each wine, you'll learn about the cultural and historical significance of these regions in both Greek winemaking traditions and ancient tales.
Tickets are $40 and the event takes place at the Embassy of Greece on Massachusetts Avenue. Advance registration is required through Eventbrite.
