WINE MAKING
WINERIES
WineThe reputation of Bozcaada as an island of wine intensifies each year. Every year the last weekend of June has been chosen for this activity, which was held for the first time in the summer of 2005. Support is given by the island’s wine manufacturers, district officials and the Municipality.
This year the wine tasting days are going to be on June 23-24-25. All through these vivacious three days, the streets of the island, which smell of grapes and wine, are filled with a sweet excitement. People gather in front of wine stores, some even sing and dance. People drink wine as they talk about wine. Panels to which wine experts are invited give us a chance to develop our wine culture.
A glass of wine will accompany you as you sit around the fire in a magnificent cove, or in a Vivaldi concert given in an ancient wine house, or as you listen to live Gypsy music on one of the streets of the island.
The wine tasting days are a good excuse to visit the island while it is still not very crowded.
