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.

Gaia Wines 2011 Thalassitis Assyrtico (Santorini)
- $25
Bright lemon, tropical fruit and a sea spray wave lead the nose of this energetic white. On the palate, the wine has balanced acidity, appealing bounce and a finish of alternately lush and bracing fruit. A great example of how elegant and likeable Greek whites can be.

Gentilini 2008 Robola (Cephalonia)
- $18
This wine showcases the native Greek variety Robola beautifully, with its crisp, clean citrus aromas and flavors and minerally/sea salt spin. The wine has a fresh quality but offers layers of lemon and orange. The finish is like a spray of the sea on the palate. Pair with seafood and light salads.

Antonopoulos 2006 Moschofilero (Mantinia)
- $16
A wave of refreshing, bright floral and citrus notes on the palate offers a combination of fruit character and clean, crisp flavors—much like a California Sauvignon Blanc—but with indigenous originality. The finish is long but light. Overall, a very pretty, versatile wine.

Boutari 2008 Assyrtico (Santorini)
- $20
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.

Domaine Costa Lazaridi 2008 Château Julia Assyrtiko Assyrtico (Drama)
- $20
A snappy nose of citrus and grapefruit is followed by a very pretty balance of fresh apples and citrus and spice. Aromatic but dry, it will pair well with spicy cuisine or grilled seafood.
