I was lucky to visit Venikos for wine tasting of outstanding varieties of Rose wines 2 years ago. And became devoted customer since then. Never boring, always informative/exiting/relaxed and very friendly atmosphere of all their trips, wine tasting and dinners made me to believe that quality service does exist in Greece. And thanks to Nikos and Dominic I am huge fan of greek wines now. Just the thought of Maria's dinners makes me salivate in anticipation for a next visit. Meet them once (and you will be hooked) and join a group of Greek wines aficionados.Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic people that organize fine wine tours and tasting seminars in the region.

We booked a wine tour with Venikos for one day. It started at the House Venikos in the center of Nemea where we were welcomed by our very friendly and knowledgeable guide. We visited 2 selected wineries, one a modern style big winery and the other a family run boutique winery. Both with excellent introductions and high quality wines. Then we visited a local organic vinegar producer where we learned all about balsamic and had a great picnic in the vineyard with local delicacies. For the evening we booked a small wine seminar with dinner. The wine tasting was held in the cozy tasting room they operate and it has even a garden with a small vineyard where we could see the Greek grape varieties. We tasted 8 wines from indigenous grape varieties and then we had an outstanding dinner together with the wines from the tasting. It was a perfect day with super friendly people and we can recommend it to everyone.
