Organised by the Winemakers of North Greece, VorOina has grown into a landmark on the cultural calendar. Far beyond a wine fair, it is a stage where centuries-old traditions meet innovation, where landscapes tell their stories through every glass, and where Northern Greece’s vineyards reveal their most precious treasures.
Guests arriving at the venue will be handed a special tasting glass – the key to a sensory journey through the eight Wine Routes of Northern Greece. From crisp whites to bold reds, from sparkling to sweet, from experimental new vintages to rare magnums, every sip opens a window into the character of the land and the dedication of its winemakers.
The event is structured around the famous Wine Roads of Northern Greece, guiding visitors across diverse terroirs:
- The Olympian Gods Route, at the foot of myth and mountain.
- The Lakes Route, reflecting the calm beauty of Velvento and Kastoria.
- Naoussa and Goumenissa, homes of the noble Xinomavro grape.
- Thessaloniki and Chalkidiki, where history and innovation meet by the sea.
- Epirus and Dionysus’ Route, where dramatic landscapes produce wines as bold as their surroundings.
Each stand is a chapter in this story, written by passionate winemakers eager to share their craft and vision.
VorOina is not just about tasting—it is also about learning and exchanging ideas. This year’s side events promise to be as engaging as the wines themselves:
- Workshops uncovering the mysteries of corks and cellar management.
- Symposiums exploring aromas, terroirs, and consumer trends.
- Masterclasses dedicated to rare Greek and international varieties – the hidden gems of Northern Greece.
These sessions, turn VorOina into a hub of dialogue between science, tradition, and the future of winemaking.
For Iter Vitis, VorOina is a shining example of how wine connects culture, identity, and territory. It is not only a celebration of Greece’s viticultural heritage but also a living laboratory where visitors can understand how wine shapes communities, supports sustainable tourism, and continues to inspire creativity.
Whether you are a professional, a passionate wine enthusiast, or a curious traveler, VorOina promises an unforgettable exploration of the flavors, aromas, and stories of Northern Greece.
