Greeks, Santorini & others, check. Rieslings, dry & off-dry, check. Portuguese whites, incl. Vinhos Verdes, check. Cider, check. (Don't worry, I have more categories, but not everything fits into one photo.) And why isn't there a white wine glass icon?Making do.🥂

Well, Summer is not here yet, but I hear it's coming and this week in the mid-Atlantic region it's going to be hitting 80F (27c) on consecutive days.🤗

It's a good price point in Alpha's red lineup, a friendly style with some distinction. No rush, but this is a great time to dive in.

Part 3: last part.
But it integrates that well with air and drank great. It's the better wine, but not by as much as I expected and Areti overachieved. This can still age, but great now. Under $25 on release.

Vinsanto from Argyros on Santorini, Greece, 4-years barrel aged
Argyros Vinsanto, an Assyrtiko-dominated blend. This has 220 grams of residual sugar, but is nowhere near cloying. The winery makes highly-prized and longer aged versions like 12 and 20-year, but don't sleep on the gorgeous 4-year. $65 for a 500ml. #Wine #winesofgreece #vinsanto
