In the summer of 2018 in Mykonos, Cinque Wine & Deli introduced a new way to experience Greek wine.
In a destination where expectations are high and every detail matters, Cinque Mykonos developed tailor-made wine services designed for the cosmopolitan audience of the island. Mykonos is not just a holiday location. It is a global stage of premium travelers, villa guests, yacht owners and visitors who seek something curated, personal and refined.
Cinque responded with a wine experience that moved beyond the traditional wine bar setting.
Your Own Wine Basket, Designed for You
During that season, every day from 13:00, the team at Cinque Mykonos prepared personalized wine baskets, carefully curated according to each guest’s preferences.
Guests chose among premium Greek wine labels, rare boutique selections and indigenous grape varieties that represent the richness of the Greek vineyard. Each basket could be complemented with selected cheeses, fine charcuterie and Cinque’s homemade chutneys.
But the experience did not end at the counter.
The Cinque team recommended the ideal place to enjoy your wine — a quiet beach corner, a sunset viewpoint, a private terrace or a hidden spot known to locals.
Premium Services for a Cosmopolitan Island
Tailor-Made Wine Services were created for those who expect flexibility, discretion and personalization.
Cinque Mykonos offered:
Curated beach picnics with selected wine pairings
Villa wine catering and customized wine lists
Provisioning for yachts and private charters
Special occasion wine selections for birthdays and private celebrations
Luxury wine gift baskets for VIP guests
Each request was handled individually, with attention to detail and a deep understanding of Greek wine identity.
Greek Wine in Its Most Elegant Expression
In a destination dominated by international luxury brands, Cinque placed the Greek vineyard at the center of the experience.
Indigenous varieties, expressive terroirs and boutique producers became part of premium island living. Greek wine was not just served. It was presented, explained and experienced.
July 2018 marked a new chapter for Cinque Mykonos.
A wine bar became a wine concierge.
A glass became a destination.
