When it comes to the world of Greek wine, this man wrote the book… LITERALLY! That’s Nico Manessis (right) receiving an award from the president of the Wine Producers Association of the Northern Greece Vineyard, Evangelos Gerovassiliou (left), for his contribution to the study of Greek wine.
Mr. Manessis authors a fantastic site on Greek wine, GreekWineWorld, and his Illustrated Greek Wine Book (2000) is widely considered the definitive encyclopedia of Greek wine.
Here at BoutariWines.com, we visit his site almost daily for vintage reports, tasting notes, and rich historical and cultural information on the wonderful wines of Greece.
To Mr. Manessis, chapeau bas! Thank you for sharing your passion for Greek wine with the world!
