Top ways to experience Finewine and nearby attractions
The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Plaka
Due to its proximity to the Acropolis, Plaka remains the area where the majority of foreign visitors stay and play. Its attractive features include small squares, some notable museums and the beautiful Mitropolis cathedral, as well as a host of places to stay, eat and drink. Its pedestrian zones make it a pleasant place to escape from the city’s notorious traffic. Adrianou and Kidathineon Streets contain a number of souvenir shops, offering classier items than you will find in the Flea Market. The most rewarding section to explore is the upper reaches towards the Acropolis itself, where many old stone houses with tiled roofs have survived. Up here you can find leafier corners and the odd quaint taverna with unobstructed views of the ancient rock.
How to get there
- Akropoli • 5 min walk

If you want to enjoy a glass of greek wine away from usual touristic streets, you want to come here. There is a great selection of wines. We were served very nicely and also ordered a small platter of cheese, salami, olives and breadsticks along with the wine. This is a small and cozy place to really enjoy. A bit pricey though, but worth it.

A highlight of our visit! We tasted about 10 Greek wines under the guidance of our wonderful host Sofia. She explained how they were made, showed us a map of Greece so we understood the wine regions, and delivered a case back to our hotel for us to take home. All this accompanied by delicious cheeses, cured meats, olives and such. Location is in a charming pedestrian street in Plaka, where we sat at an outdoor table.

Ths was a fantastic find in the Plaka district of Athens. No seats were available when we stumbled upon this place but the hostess/waitress told us to return in 10 minutes and a seat would be available. We waited on a doorway step next to the wine bar and our host - Sophia - served us at the step. It was a wonderful place to people watch and enjoy Athens. The wine bar, staff, and ambience were all fantastic and I highly recommend a visit. Even purchased a bottle for bringing back to the USA. The staff is very knowledgeable about Greek wines. And we did move over to the "cart" to enjoy our wine. Both the doorstep and cart were magical experiences.

My friends and I really enjoyed the wine tasting. The owner of the shop helped us understand where the wines came from and hand picked each based on our age. She was very nice and accommodating to us , we really loved her. We also loved the Crudité board and the view of the beautiful little alleyway we got to sit in. I would definitely recommend and would come back again

The owners are warm and hospitable. They instantly made me feel as if I was an old friend. Sophia was particularly knowledgeable about the different wine regions of Greece and recommended several different wine for me to taste based on what I liked. They were all good. I even arranged to have a wine tasting with so many wines. I am very happy I stumbled upon this place and will gladly come back whenever I am in Athens.

FineWine is a charming small wine shop, specializing in Greek wine, with a selection of many others (even some Canadian ice wine). Sophia will prepare a wonderful tasting with accompanying cheese and snacks for a reasonable price and shares her enthusiasm for Greek wine. I went twice. It’s a great shop!

My mom and I wanted to have a wine tasting in the city so we went to this place.
The shop is beautiful, the selection of local wines are amazing, and the couple who own the shop are so friendly and have all the information you need about the wines.
They served us 10 different wines with lots of amazing cheese and olives.
It is absolutely a must.
