Cinque Wine & Deli Monastiraki, Athens Greece

On a recommendation from a friend in the wine tourism business in the Algarve we visited Cinque Wine Bar. It's a small family run wine bar with three locations in Athens, two run by the family and one is a franchise, business must be good! We stopped by their store in Monastiraki and met owner Greg and his son the Sommelier. It was a perfect afternoon break for weary tourists and a great chance to learn about Greek wines and Olive oils from passionate professionals.

After our cruise we wanted to return and purchase some of the excellent Olive oil that we tasted there but they were closed on Sunday. I sent a message to them asking where they might suggest we find the same oil. Evangelie, Greg's wife and co-owner responded and offered to open for us so we could stop by and get the Olive oil. We stopped by at the agreed time and had the chance to meet and have a great conversation with Evangelie and thank her for opening just for us. Fantastic over the top service, Thank you! 4.7/5.0
