D3: Greece: Background: Greek Wines with Konstantinos Lazarakis MW Part 1
Konstantinos tells us about the different grape varieties and regions of Greece, where 95% of the wine is consumed domestically and so can be hard to find in the UK. Many new grapes are being rediscovered every year but there are 200 indigenous grape varieties so far identified but in the market there are closer to 50 varietals available. There are also the international varieties being planted. We hear about the appellation system in Greece with the top tier being the PDO (POP) and second tier is PGI (more akin to Vin de Pays quality). Finally we talk about the traditional Greek wine, Retsina.
I thought the questions were excellent, an extremely valuable revision tool. They really helped highlight areas I thought I had revised and understood but clearly had not, which has enabled me to focus on key areas to revisit and study before going into the exam... I think it is a great resource and an essential revision aid for any WSET 3 students wishing to gain a competitive edge and successfully pass the WSET 3 exam.
