Hermes by Praxiteles

Reviewed By GwensGramma - Durham, United States

It is incredible that this beautifully carved statue has survived the centuries and we can gaze on it today. It was carved during the Classical period of Greek sculpture in the 4th century B.C. Hermes is holding the baby Dionysus and it is a work of true beauty.

Olympia Land Winery

An unforgettable excursion to the family winery Olympia Land Estate which is into the green valley of Olympia and just 5 minutes from the archaeological site. The particular terroir of the region, the excellent microclimate, the clayey and sandy soil help our vines to grow healthy and very aromatic grapes in order to produce high quality wines. In the Olympia Land Estate you have the opportunity to be part in a tour which start with a walk on the vineyards where you learn about the cultivation of the vines, continue in the production area and finally in the cellar with the oak barrels. After the tour you will enjoy samples of our wines, our homemade olive oil and also other traditional snacks in the air-conditioned reception area. We are on your disposal to help you to organize quickly and easily your excursion which will be for you a memorable experience.

When many people think “wine,” Greece is not among the places they consider for fine wines or even up-and-coming vino. Olympia GI Winery, a family winery located in historic Olympia, makes one reconsider whether the next hot wine locale will be Greece. The vineyard started as a hobby, now turned into a business, according to our guide, part of the family. The vineyard also has a bustling olive oil business (and it is excellent). Wines are reasonably priced, and they have whites, reds, and a rose (made with Syrah). The tasting room and outdoor area are nice places to enjoy a glass of your favorite and a snack plate (which pairs well with the selections here). We enjoyed the red (called Phideas, which combines Agiorgitiko and Merlot) and wish we’d have taken home a few more bottles. A bonus: some very sweet puppies to play with as well).
