Tried this Santorini retailing for $40. Very concentrated but can’t say I was blown away by it. Volcanic terroir dominates almost to the point of obscurity, and it had strong lemon notes, hints of quince, and sea salt. It clashed with Mexican food (hey I knew that beforehand but didn’t think it would clash THAT bad, and usually pair Mexican with Riesling or Gewürztraminer) but I’m going to Greece soon and wanted to drink Greek wine. I drank half at a BYOB, took the bottle home(cont’d)

(Contd) and put it next to a feta and olive oil salad, and viola! This is definitely a food wine, but it needs Greek food. Even a relatively bland Australian chicken pot pie I had for dinner doesn’t work. On a Parker scale, taking it into account price, I’d give it an 85. Not a terrible wine but I’d prefer to fork over an equivalent amount for a fine Riesling. But Greek food…yeah, maybe.

I've had santinori wines that were very very briny, not a bad thing, but definitely need to be paired with complimentary flavors like olive and feta. Happy travels!

Ribeiro: LOVE this wine region from the Galicia region of Spain but it’s hard to find anything coming out of this place. Not to be confused with Ribera del Duero, known for Vega Sicilia, lot of white wine cones from this region. The Treixadura grape is prominent, and it has granite soils and a rich bubblegum like flavor. Lovely minerality and acidity.
