The Pinot 2023 from Domaine Ostertag offers an exceptional representation of Alsace's Pinot family, a group of closely related grape varieties.

On the palate, it is round and oily with intense flavours of stone fruits, grass, and sweet spices, balanced by medium-plus acidity. The medium-length finish leaves a satisfying impression, making it an ideal wine to enjoy now, especially paired with chicken spaghetti.

Cuvée Spéciale Extra Brut, Karanika
Laurens Hartman is or should be a case study in the Greek wine scene. He came from Holland, tired of the urban way of life and searching for a place he could enjoy life. Who could ever imagine that this place would be the unfriendly Amyndeon?
Goumenissa 2007, Tatsis
The PDO Goumenissa region in northern Macedonia extends to the southeastern foothills of Mount Paiko. The area is famous for its red wines, a blend of Xinomavro and Negoska.

Roditis 2016, Tatsis Winery
No matter the concept behind each wine, the target is one and only one: to deliver fun. When that rule fails, there are no excuses to justify the result.
Heliades 2014, Domaine Economou
Giannis Economou is the essence of an "artisan winemaker". His wines do not conform to norms, rules, boundaries or narrow points of view.

Antigone 2004, Domaine Economou
I guess the most noteworthy wine event of last year was the release of the wines of Giannis Oikonomou after a long waiting period. His idiosyncratic intelligence hit the market and the heart of every wine lover with plenty of new labels. But, without a doubt, the jewel in the crown is Antigone.
Assyrtiko 2014, Domaine Economou
It needs an artistic sense and "out of the box view" in order to craft wines like Giannis Economou.
Laurier Noir Nature 2019, Tetramythos Winery
This is one more excellent example of dry Mavrodaphne, one of the most promising red Greek varieties.
It’s Müller Time SandersStruck 2020, Staffelter Hof
The label rock's but the juice inside the bottle does not support the excellent branding. However, Müller Thurgau is not famous for high-quality wines, so overall, the wine is not bad, but it is overpriced.
