Benaki Museum of Greek Culture

The Greek vineyard meets leading figures of the Athenian culinary scene in some of the city's most iconic museums. Top labels from beloved Greek estates, distinguished wines, and hidden treasures accompany creations that celebrate and showcase the products of the Greek land in surprising pairings.

Once again this year, the Benaki Museum of Greek Culture joins the Athens Municipality Festival, presenting a premier fine dining experience curated by Wine Style. This exclusive event will be hosted at the Museum's exquisite restaurant, situated on the magnificent rooftop of its neoclassical building. Guests will enjoy unparalleled panoramic views encompassing the National Garden, the Hellenic Parliament, and Lycabettus Hill.

Featuring a meal catered by "Deipnosofistirion", each dish is harmoniously paired with wines from the iconic Tselepos and Driopi Estates, located on the Mantineia plateau and in Nemea, respectively. The wines will be presented by Aris Tselepos.
