Featured event
Greek Wine Tasting & Odyssey Talk
Join us for an evening of Homer, Nolan and Greek wine on Sunday, 22 November. 🍷
You’re wrong if you think the Odyssey craze is over. If we spent three hours watching the movie, we’ve earned at least three more to talk about it.
Odysseus spent ten years trying to get home, and wine played a bigger part in his troubles than the epic lets on.
We’ll read the Odyssey through its wine: one passage, one glass, one conversation at a time. Homer’s epic leads the way, with a few detours into Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey to see what three thousand years did to the story.
What to expect
- The key moments of Homer’s Odyssey, retold and discussed
- A look at what Nolan’s film kept, changed and left out
- A guided tasting of four artisanal Greek wines, paired with the story
- A small table, a slow evening
No homework. You don’t need to have read the epic or know anything about wine, we’ll walk you through both. Watching Nolan’s film beforehand is recommended, though.
🎟 Tickets: This event requires a ticket (€32, wines included), available via link
RSVPing on Meetup alone doesn’t reserve your seat.
