    May 15, 2023 - Huge fan of this juice from a reliable and always improving house. Greece in the glass: lemon verbena. oregano, crushed fresh sage, green olives, briney crushed shells. Grapefruit zest, cured lemons, green papaya , and green melon dance with the slightly bitter acidity that runs through the surprisingly long finish. That tension enhances food pairing possibilities. I sautéed some baby mustard and celery greens with garlic, chili pepper paste, and mustard oil, topped a Genio Della Bianca pie, and in 8 minutes had quite the feast, the wine providing a palate refreshing effect between bites. Drink before 2026, and you’ll be transported to Santorini!! Lemon sage chicken with olives would be perfect, as well.
