An interesting wine from an interesting region. I think given the circumstances it would be appropriate to try and relate this small producer with a less known varietal to something we're all familiar with: Chenin Blanc. It's got body and RS but pulls back on a lot of the overt tropical fruit you'll see in the Loire. Pretty great and very fun to drink.

So interesting. Quite beautifully textured, almost has a flor-like quality. I really enjoyed this.

Beautiful. Ripe apricot and white tea aromas that open on the palate initially, then the tartness and acid create an almost savory finish.

Quirky orange wine from Crete, would have guessed Jura vin orange. Butterscotch, oranges, piercing acidity trough the sweetness . Impressive

Savory but sweet on the nose.

The interesting part is that this wine is incredibly mild on the nose but bold in its taste. It almost smelt like fresh rain or the sidewalk thereafter. Dry, crisp, slightly pepper-ish with mild floral notes.

Golden lager color. Unique dry complexity and a long finish. Kind of like a soft Chenin Blanc. I quite like it!
