Fresh, citrus, firm, crisp acidity and with a lovely twist of aromatic finish courtesy of the Malagousia in the blend. As always well made, elegant and very enjoyable. Good now but would easily evolve for a few years. 90-91

From 75cl, DIAM 5 closure which, unlike the one in my previous bottle (three days ago, same restaurant, from same case of wine stored in the same fridge) hasn't yet led to any obvious deterioration. No bitterness, no muscat-grapey notes, but all the positive grip, concentration and acid verve previously noted. If the producer wants to eliminate bottle variation, then screwcap might be worth a try; not the first time I have despaired at the degree of bottle variation under DIAM. Oh, the wine was delicious. 90P

From 75cl, DIAM 5 closure. Best served straight from the ice-bucket, this chunky, weighty dry white (texturally reminiscent of a good Grüner Veltliner Smaragd) showed some discordant bitter and muscat-rasiny-sweet notes as it warmed up, which clashed unpleasantly with grilled fish and even fresh bread and olive oil in an idyllic sea-side taverna on the east coast of Pelion. Obviously a serious effort, the inferior closure indicates that it is designed for quick consumption. Malagousia/Assyrtiko blend. 88(-89?)P
