@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 …

@marksquires 👍👍 for #Virginia & #VaWine
Live & work in #NoVa (just down the road from Mt. Vernon) and we’ve got a ton of great things for tourists to do … I’d suggest the #MountVernon #Distillery and the #TorpedoArtFactory plus a stroll thru Old Town Alexandria. For drinks, #PortCityBrewing or #LostBoyCider!
If you want to visit #RVA, once a year the #VaGovCup is awarded and the ceremony happens in the train station (worth a visit anytime). There are good eats in Shockhoe Bottom. Plus, several urban #cider, #mead, & #beer producers in the city!
Virginia is for Wine & #history lovers!
