  1. #Wednesday #dinner Steamed mussels with spinach & pancetta in a spiced garlic cream sauce over bucatini.
    Perfect #wine pairing is a a bright, tangy #chardonnay from #MargaretRiver #westernaustralia offering plenty of marine accents to the pear, ginger, Brie & lemon curd notes.
    😋😋😋

  2. @micchega I’d second many of @marksquires Greek recommendations! While Santorini Assyrtiko is pricey (if you can snag a bottle from Hatzidakis, do it!), there are some very solid mainland producers that are filling in the lower price range nicely for the grape. If you can find it, Papargyriou Blanc is a blend of Moschoudi & Assyrtiko that’s excellent and should run you about $17 retail.

    Don’t give up on Chardonnay! It’s a chameleon … if you are looking for #MargaretRiver, grab a bottle of Vasse Felix Filius #Chardonnay. But, just looking at my chards in the Shop, my favs are #VaWine, #WhiteBurgundy (with some age), and the sparkly ones …

  3. @marksquires yes exactly that. I prefer wines that have more character. I still would like to try a #MargaretRiver before I add #Chardonnay to "do not buy list". Lovely list of #GreekWine, will defo try some. Haven't tried anything from Greece yet, but I have been saving a bottle of #Xinomavro. #wine #winetasting
