Dry, mineral-y. Almost loved this wine, but wanted a bit more complexity. Still, imminently enjoyable. — 2 months ago

Another great Orange wine from this Cretan producer. Very mild orange flavor but the hint of citrus just pleases. The nose is flowery and just perfume. This — 2 years ago

Definitely not white wine. Savory and structured Roditis with skin contact. Bergamot, quince, dried orange peel, tomato vine, cashews, hazelnuts, tannin. Organic. Dare I say this is a “classic” orange wine? Pair this with spanakopita when you’re feeling funky. — 2 years ago

2021 Assyrtiko from “the slopes of Algialeia” . So Good. Bright, refreshing, full of verve. Citrus blossoms, orange peel and lemon. Minerality throughout. A hint of sea spray. Reminds me of a Premier Cru Chablis. About $24. A bottle. — a year ago

Skin contact, Retsina Assyrtiko. More retsina than orange. Rosemary and juniper. Crisp citrus and pomme fruit. Pair with rosemary pork tenderloin or chicken cordon bleu. — 2 years ago

Dry, crisp, full bodied, medium acidity, blend of orange and olive oil bouquet, perfect paired with a simple, lemon-seasoned white fish (we had it with a grilled sea bass and lemon potatoes). — a year ago

Super tasty. Full bodied, somewhere between a Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay. Notes of pear and orange. Acidic and astringent. Would love to have again. — a year ago

[Tasted on November 24, 2022 at Home with Michael and Rachel]

Purchased during 2019 visit to the winery on Santorini. Grapes are sun dried for 10-14 days and then, after fermentation, the wine is barrel aged for seven years. Honey, caramel, dried apricot, orange peel, fig and raisin flavors. Wine is viscous and very sweet—a bit cloying after the first glass. — 2 years ago
