A. Parparoussis 1999 Muscat de Rio Patras (Muscat of Patras)

Price $26

Lightly sundried for 10 days and then lightly fortified to stop the fermentation, this sweet Muscat is crammed with flavors of dried apricots, pears and oranges. Despite relatively low acidity, it doesn’t seem all that sweet—probably best sipped on its own, with fresh fruit or with cheese. — J.C. (9/2/2004)

Anise, plum and cedar on the nose is followed by flavors if red fruit and wood. The finish offers spice and pepper. Slightly stewy but overall a friendly red that will pair well with smoky meat. — S.K. (3/1/2011)

Online Exclusive

This reserve Agiorgitiko starts with robust aromas of BBQ, spice and cigarbox, leading into equally masculine flavors of pipe smoke, red cherry and tea. The wine has a young quality to it, but will be tempered with dishes that have some weight, like lamb or beef. — S.K. (6/1/2011)
