Jun 12th, 2017Paired with lentil soup and an olive app, this bright, clean Greek wine smells of melon and dried parsley and tastes of almonds, wet stone, citrus, and stone fruit. Not a sipper. Food wine.

Dec 25th, 2015Superb texture, the palate is crisp and tensile, with sharp acids and flavors of crisp and snappy citrus, with a stone and steely mineral tension. I may have found a new oyster wine. #santorini #greekwine #winebow #thalassitis #assyrtiko
