Ball Square Fine Wines Presents: Go Greek! (Wine Dinner at Bistro 5)

Did you know it was the Greeks back in 4000 B.C. that started cultivating grape vines? Greeks believed that wine was a gift from the gods and worshiped Dionysus, a creature with the mind of a man and the instinct of beast. 

Ball Square Fine Wines is a big fan of Dionysus. And fortunately modern times have not only brought back a resurgence in Greek wine production, but now, in the 21st Century, ensured delicious Greek wines also come to our shores. Granted, these wines are largely still hidden gems....  Fortunately, we know where to look!

Join us for a special Ball Square Fine Wines FIVE COURSE wine dinner event featuring the beautiful, nuanced wines of Greece at local, renown host Bistro 5.
