Fresh, vibrant, at once floral and herbal at the back. Very aromatic. Dry with relatively short but pleasant finish. A fine food wine for dishes with olives, roasted meats with aromatic spices, Greek spices.

Very pale color, a few notches away from being colorless. Bright lemon, white flowers on the nose. Palate is very floral (what is that? Hyacinth? Hibiscus? Lilac? Not quite sure), warming into pear, lemon tart. Weight is very light, strikingly so. Not much of a finish, but is perhaps best described as fleeting or ghostly. Nice to quaff.

Solid performance from this Peloponesian Moschofilero. Word has it that Agamemnon and Helen drank this wine. Helen got drunk on it before being stolen by Hector and taken to Troy.

Notes consistent with before. Acidity is medium to medium minus. Still a pleasant drink, refreshing tangerine and pineapple notes dance with white stone minerality. Will certainly revisit!

Juicy and fresh, lovely natural sweetness from the ripe fruit, so fragrant and floral it might be from Germany, light to medium body, cool minerality, attractive hint of bitters on the finish, good length. Really very attractive. At Scott's restaurant, London, UK.

Crisp and clean white with pale salty citrus notes, but lots of flowers too. Great casual sip, but would be great with light seafood. Glad I bought more than one ;)

This wine gets better every time I try it. Now full of lime zest and creaminess, great acidity and balance with no sharp edges.

Aromatic white with initial pear notes followed up with almost an Alsatian muscat character. Dry, with good acid balance. Lovely.

Savory, funky aromas of mineral driven fruit, especially pear. Tangy and crisp with flinty orange flavors.

Light straw. Interesting aromatic, stony, light/medium bodied white. Supporting acidity adds a nice Summer-sour note. Nice warm weather white.
