World Wine Tourism Day 2023
World Wine Tourism Day 2023 is a special event happening on
Sunday, November 12, in Crete
The celebration will take place at the Wineries of Crete.
On that day, 23 wineries from the Wine Roads of Crete, together with many others across Europe, are coming together for World Wine Tourism Day. They're inviting everyone to join in the fun.
When you visit these wineries, you can take a tour of the vineyards, meet the people who make the wine, enjoy the lovely vineyard views, see how the wine is made and aged, taste both new and aged wines, and learn about the fresh wines from this year's harvest.
Sunday, November 12, from 11 am to 5 pm. You can visit one or more wineries in Crete. You'll find all the details, on the official Wines of Crete website at www.winesofcrete.gr.
Additionally, you can find restaurants that are part of the 'Bring Your Own Wine' campaign on the same website. If you buy wine from the winery, you can take it to one of these restaurants and enjoy it with your meal at no extra cost, as long as you show proof of purchase (you'll need to order food as well). This offer is only valid on Sunday, November 12.
