Wine Suggestions

An autumn version of the Spanish Gazpacho. A dish with a fresh acid taste and fruity hints that pairs extremely well with refreshing white wines with exotic aromas and bright rosé wines. A PDO Mantinia (ΠΟΠ Μαντινεία) wine made by the pink skinned Moschofilero, a PGI blend based on Sauvignon Blanc from Macedonia and a rosé PGI wine based on Xinomavro are excellent choices.
