Excellent. Could be faster shipping to shipping company. Would shop here again.
One of the store employees suggested this wine to me and I'm so glad he did, I was pleasantly surprised at how flavorful it was.

If your only context for Greek alcohol involves a blurry memory of an anise-fueled Ouzo shot in a college dive bar, it’s time to class up your palate. Meet the 2025 Alpha Estate Sauvignon Blanc, straight out of the windswept, high-altitude vineyards of Amyndeon, Greece.
Forget what you think you know about traditional New Zealand "grass and gooseberry" bombs. This bottle doesn't want to assault your nostrils; it wants to take you on a Mediterranean vacation. It pours out a vibrant, brilliant straw-yellow, bursting instantly with aromas of crisp green apple, juicy white peach, and a sophisticated whisper of lemongrass.
On the palate, it’s a masterclass in tension. It delivers that electric, mouth-watering acidity you crave from a great Sauvignon Blanc, but grounds it with a beautifully rounded, creamy texture and a distinctive stony minerality that says, "Yes, I grew up near ancient Macedonian lakes." It’s bone-dry, incredibly bright, and possesses a clean, lingering finish that begs for a plate of grilled branzino, some salty feta, or honestly, just a sunny patio and zero responsibilities. Skip the usual grocery store suspects tonight and go Greek—your glass will thank you.
