Maltese wine dates back over two thousand years to the time of the Phoenicians.
Some of the wineries resort to using imported grapes because agricultural areas are severely limited on the islands by the growth of settlements and tourism.
In Malta, the designationas DOK and IĠT are used, which form part of the EU system of geographical indications.
The other two wineries were planted in the 2000s when Maltese viticulture experienced a growth in quality production.
This festival is organized in the streets of Qormi, in front of St. George's Parish Church.
