Greece: a dynamic vine and wine sector rich in the history and diversity of its wines

In the course of a working meeting attended by, inter alia, Ms Chrysoula Papadimitriou, Director for Rural Development and Food, Ms Evangelina Komenta, delegate to the OIV, Mr Yannis Voyatzis, President of the National Inter-Professional Organisation for Vines and Wine and Mr Theodore Georgopoulos, Director of the Greek Wine Federation, the Secretary-General spoke of Greece’s contribution to the work of the OIV (of which Greece has been a member since 1929) and confirmed the country’s unstinting support for the Organisation. He went on to speak of Greece’s firm intention to develop its viticulture by upgrading wines produced from native varieties, which are part of Greece’s historical heritage.

Mr Jean-Marie Aurand gave a presentation of the OIV’s Strategic Plan and expressed his pleasure at the active presence of Greek experts in the organisation and the delegation’s contribution to the decision-making process.

He drew attention to the importance the OIV attaches to maintaining the diversity of vine and wine production and improving and upgrading native varietal wines by means of the research and development programmes now being carried out in many countries.

With 110 000 hectares planted to vines, Greece produces some 3 million hectolitres of wine under highly varied soil and climatic conditions.

A land with a millenary wine tradition, Greece has succeeded in building up a modern viticulture sector with international vine varieties while at the same time continuing, from among nearly 300 local varieties, to produce unique wines based on Assyrtiko, Moschofilero, Agiorgitiko or Xinomavro grapes. It is also the land of the Cretan diet, based on cereals, olive oil, vegetables and world-renowned wines.

28th Class of the OIV Msc in Wine Management

Following an introduction to the OIV and its activities by the various heads of unit, they were received by Director General Jean-Marie Aurand who stressed the original character of this training and the openings to which it gives rise, thanks to the network of universities and companies associated with it.

This diploma is unique in that its field of study is at one and the same time single-sector, multidisciplinary, itinerant, international and experimental, while drawing on one of today’s most highly developed networks in the wine world. Since 1987, more than 500 “movers and shakers” in the wine world have received this training.

Before the members of this class left OIV headquarters, Jean-Marie Aurand insisted on the international dimension of a course which every year enables students to discover more than 20 key countries in Planet Wine, situated on 5 continents.

OIV: 2015 Presentation of Awards

From 55 competing works and 17 countries represented, the OIV Award Jury, which met on 8 July in Mainz in Germany, under the Presidency of Ms Claudia Quini, gave out 9 Awards and 10 Special Mentions from the OIV.

Hosted by Mr Oleg Ungureanu, Chargé d'Affaires a.i. of the Romanian Embassy, the Awards Presentation Ceremony took place in the suites of the Hôtel de Béhague. It was attended by numerous representatives from the Diplomatic Corps; President of the OIV Award Jury, diplomat, poet and writer Mr František Lipka; OIV President Ms Monika Christmann; OIV Vice-President Ms Claudia Quini; OIV Director General Mr Jean-Marie Aurand and Scientific Secretary of the Award Jury Mr Jean-Luc Berger.

The 2015 Ceremony received the highest number of applications on record since the OIV Awards were created, confirming the renown and prestige of this international recognition.

The rigorous work of many specialised readers who evaluated all of these works gave the International Jury the necessary information to make their decisions, faced with the significant number of works submitted.

The authors and publishers were wholeheartedly thanked for their cultural, technical and scientific – or even hedonistic – contributions, each and every one of whose diverse approaches seeks to share a common passion for the vine and wine world.
