"The cleanest and purest of the natural wines on the planet, low in pH, high of natural acidity and without a care in the world. You just have to take a stab in the dark with winemaker Panayiotis Papagiannopoulos’ roditis. Or you have not yet lived."
Michael Godel, 2015 vintage, tasted in April 2016.
