Dayvino Rituals: Authentic Greek Wine & Food Experience in Athens

Dayvino Rituals: Authentic Greek Wine & Food Experience in Athens

Athens is a city where everyday life, hospitality and food culture meet around the table — and Greek wine is one of the most authentic ways to experience that connection.

The Dayvino Rituals: Authentic Greek Wine & Food Experience in Athens is a relaxed daytime food and wine journey, designed to showcase familiar Greek flavours through thoughtful pairings with selected Greek wines.

Created for the daytime hours, this experience brings together simple, generous and recognisable Greek tastes — from feta, tomato and handmade pie to warm pork pita flavours and a classic homemade dessert — paired with Greek wines in a casual yet curated Cinque experience.

Hosted across selected locations of the Cinque Wine & Deli network, this experience is ideal for guests who want to enjoy Greek food and wine during the day, without the formality of a full tasting menu.

A Four-Course Authentic Greek Daytime Pairing

During the experience, you will enjoy four Greek dishes, each paired with a Greek wine serving of 75ml, selected to highlight balance, tradition and everyday Greek flavour.

The pairing journey includes:

First course:
Cretan cherry tomato salad with feta cheese and carob rusk, paired with Roditis

Second course:
Handmade spinach pie, paired with Savatiano

Third course:
Deconstructed Greek pork pita with warm pork tenderloin, handmade tzatziki, toasted Cypriot pita, Cretan cherry tomatoes and pickled cucumber, paired with Retsina

Fourth course:
Homemade chocolate biscuit mosaic, paired with sweet Mavrodaphne

The menu reflects the comfort, simplicity and generosity of the Greek table, while each wine pairing adds a different expression of the Greek vineyard.

Discover Everyday Greek Flavours & Wines

Throughout the experience, you will be introduced to Greek grape varieties and wine styles that are deeply connected with the country’s everyday wine culture, such as:

Roditis
Savatiano
Retsina
Mavrodaphne

The pairings are designed to be easy to understand, enjoyable and memorable — a daytime introduction to Greek food and wine through flavours that feel familiar, honest and authentic.

All wines are selected from the Cinque Wine & Deli network’s curated Greek wine collection, representing the diversity and character of the modern Greek vineyard.
