In the Makings and Promising

Young blood is vital; it gives life a breeze of fresh air, it adds more spice, depth and excitement. Who does not want a little bit of extra flavour in his dish, a little bit of salt and pepper? A dimension which is not the classic expression of a variety or a terroir.

In this blog, I am constantly working towards opening a discussion about Greek wine, as I believe that if this does not happen, Greek wine will remain in the same position. It will not evolve. It will literally be going around in circles and when the whirling excitement slows down, things will just settle back to their initial position. Nonetheless, this will probably make us wiser, but we will have learnt the hard way. The only solution, that I see, is to pay more attention to the vineyards. To actually take the time to walk through them and observe the vines. Talk to the producers, taste more wine and be open minded.
