There are many things which come to one's mind when we think of Greece; the hundreds of small islands, each with a culture steeped in tradition, the rich history of the country, the blazing sunshine, crystal blue waters and balmy olive groves. We also think of wine – the product of not just hundreds, but thousands of years of careful and experimental cultivation of the grapevines which have covered much of this fascinating and ancient land for millennia.
