Papargyriou Estate, Korinthos (Peloponnese, Greece) 2022

 This white is a blend of Moschoudi, also known as Muscat Blanc, and Assyrtiko.  The Moschoudi brings in tropical and floral notes ranging from honeysuckle to orange blossom while the Assyrtiko brings a healthy pop of acidity.  Winemaker Yiannis Papargyriou, who studied winemaking in Germany, has balanced the acidity of the Assyrtiko perfectly with the residual sugar.  The wine drinks dry but the acidity makes the wine incredibly versatile when pairing with food.  His studies in Germany have also likely influenced the Germanic bottle choice.  While not certified organic, Papargyriou Estate farms organically and sustainably and continues that practice in the winery.  Ultimately, Papargyriou has produced an excellent white wine that is both delicious and surprisingly complex.
