Consumed in a night with a Leroy Burg, a Chateau Grillet, and a Coulee de Serrant, and this thing did not seem too out of place. Dry and tight, nicely aromatic, lighter than the other wines but focused and had a decent attack on the palate. for the price this is pretty good. I visited the vineyard once on Santorini. It is amazing how they make wine here, without trellising, but Sigalas is trying to see if trellising will work. A very worthy wine from a great location.

A suprising find! Golden-color, rich texture with great citrus and ripe apple flavors. This wine had weight backed up by fresh acidity and reminded me Alsatian-style Pinot Gris.

Not generally a white fan, especially in this range. this was a really nice refreshing drinking wine, enjoyed by all at the gathering. Nice acid fruit balance, not overwhelming, but not too subtle. had with a mizithra and pasta dish, and matched beautifully.

Burgs and Bordeaux at Evvia Estiatorio (Palo Alto, California): Light yellow color; light herb and citrus nose; surprisingly powerful on the palate, with a strong acid opening and minerality; medium-plus finish 91+ pts.
