Incredible assyrtiko. If Hatzidakis is like Raveneau making Assyrtiko, Vassaltis is Dauvissat.

This wine is fantastic. The standout at a Greek wine tasting. Minerality and lemon grass on the nose. Stone fruit that has a lingering finish. Highly recommend at $36 here.

Lemon colour, lemon zest bouquet, dry, good acidity with, yes, lemon, plump lemon and well balanced on the palate. Lingeringly long on the finish, a delicious Greek wine.

Babyfat chablis with flint instead of Kymer and a fruity hint. Very good - yet pricey given the competition in this realm. Would be interesting to revisit with age.

Fantastic poolside wine. Enough minerality and salinity to stand up to the sun, but acidic enough to be refreshing. Medium-to-full body white.
