Made from the Roditis grape, a pink-skinned variety grown in the Peloponnese, this wine is zesty and dry, but with a pithy feel that gives body. Flavors are of citrus, orange, peach and lemon verbena, all with fine intensity. Also has a pleasant nose of citrus and peach and a fairly long, crisp finish.

This refreshing, lively wine starts with a nose of citrus--grapefruit, lemon--and on the palate offers crisp but complex citrus flavors. Balanced and elegant, with a delicate touch. A great seafood sip.

Mint, smoked sausage and pepper lead this slightly rigid red. Tea leaves, tobacco and spice on the palate show this wine can age well, but may be slightly past its prime.

This wine has a touch of weight on the nose and palate—a result of the Viognier and Roditis in the blend. Fresh flowers and citrus on the nose lead into minerals, spice and exotic fruit on the palate. The wine is medium-bodied but maintains acidity.

Complex, exotic and ageable, this red from the Peloponnese starts with aromas of black fruit, pepper, smoked meat and herbs, followed by rich flavors of blackberry, cinnamon, pepper and crushed herb. Round, flavorful but spicy, the wine has an elegant overall character. An exemplary red from Greece.
