Domaine Sigalas 2010 Assyrtico (Santorini)
- $24
Sigalas sets the bar high for Assyrtiko as usual. This 2010 is a balance of rounded citrus, crisp sea salt and sparkling minerality. Delicious with grilled fish, fruit or alone on a hot day, this is an elegant gem of a white that represents some of the best of Greek wine offered today.

Exotic aromas of coconut, honey and spice start this unique wine from Sigalas. On the palate, waves of lemon, coconut and vanilla are balanced by acidity and spice. Delicious, and unfolding on the tongue, it has its own distinct personality, with a faraway flair.

Domaine Sigalas 2008 Mavrotragano (Santorini)

A surprise from the Assyrtiko-dominant island of Santorini, this delicious red is made from an endangered island variety. Rich aromas of cherry, violet and clove are followed by a balanced array of juicy red and black berry and complex warming spice flavors. The tannins are firm but the wine is smooth in the mouth. Pair with meat and rich cheeses. A find.

Boutari 2008 Assyrtico (Santorini)

A zippy nose of apple and citrus and a spin of pepper start this fresh but elegant white from Santorini. On the palate, refreshing but subtle apple and citrus flavors are carried on a spicy backbone, but there’s creaminess to the mouthfeel, too. A unique and versatile food wine.
