50 GGW  2025


The awards “50 Great Greek Wines” are the creation of Yiannis Karakasis, Greece ‘s second Master of Wine. As he states, they started as an idea to give Greek wine producers a recognizable identity to wine lovers all over the world. Although 2025 is just their fifth year, they quickly became recognizable among the competitions that evaluate Greek wines.


The ratings have been compiled by experienced wine professionals, who hold the Master of Wine title.


The result list is therefore presented in an alphabetical list and not by the distinction title of the wines.

The award is a piece of art, a modern goblet (kylix), a vessel in which the ancient Greeks consumed their own wine. A series of Greek and Cypriot wines with native or international varieties are put under the magnifying glass of the committee and evaluated with blind tasting. It is important to state that all wines are purchased from the market and not supplied by the producers, in order to ensure the integrity of the competition. After two phases of evaluation, the results emerge.
