An ancient Roman wine shop has been found in the ancient city of Sikyon in Greece. The shop was destroyed by a sudden destructive event. Sixty bronze coins, most dating to the reign of Constantius II, have been discovered. The latest coins are dated from AD 355 to 361.

The wine shop was found as part of a larger complex that contained kilns and presses for grapes and olives.
