Oenops Vidiano, Crete, Greece 2023
The mesmerising label might play tricks of your eyes, but there’s no fooling your tastebuds - this is unequivocally delicious! It has made its way to these shores all the way from Crete, and it’s like drinking a little postcard from the Aegean. Its bright, silver-gold colour leads to aromas and flavours of star fruit, lemon barley water, bay leaf and a hint of salt-crusted, white rocks. A stylish, mineral-inflected, sea-breeze of a wine. 13% alc. Drink now-2027.
Press review:
Decanter (Olly Smith): “Pale gold with hedonistic yet pure aromas of peach, sage, gorse flower and lime blossom. This is a wine of great precision. With stone fruit and citrus vim, there’s also a gorgeous creaminess to the texture on the finish which lasts for an impressively long time. A bright start to a rich finish, this is moreish stuff.
