When we think of old world wine, France, Italy and Spain probably spring to mind long before Greece does.
However, Greece has been producing outstanding wine for centuries. Yet with its hard to pronounce grape varieties and sometimes limited availability (in contrast to say, New Zealand’s sauvignon blanc), Greek wine can often be overlooked.
That’s something that is slowly starting to change, especially with such outstanding crisp, bone-dry white wines coming from the volcanic soil of Santorini.
Red wine doesn’t disappoint either with everything from refreshing, easy drinking reds to the dark and brooding types.
The savoury notes so often found in wines from this part of the world make them an absolute belter when it comes to matching with food.
In short, both mainland Greece and its islands are a treasure trove of wines offering something exciting for every occasion.
