Highlights from the wine tasting event “Best of the Best” at the Wine Hub
An Evening Dedicated to Excellence
With great pleasure and a remarkable turnout from wine and spirit- lovers, the Gold Tasting “Best of the Best” took place on Wednesday, July 16, at The Wine Hub in Thessaloniki— a special event celebrating the top-awarded wines and spirits of the 25th Thessaloniki Wine & Spirits Trophy.
In a warm and summery setting, guests were invited to explore 13 exceptional wines, each recognized as the finest in its variety and style, along with the 3 highest-distinction spirits – a tsipouro, ouzo, and gin – of this year’s competition.
A unique tasting journey filled with aromas, flavors, and stories from across the Greek vineyard and distilling landscape — bringing together tradition, innovation, and the art of winemaking.
