Diamantakos Preknadi White 2016

Naousa, Makedonia, GreeceThere is very little white wine made in Naoussa, but one of the best is made with a local variety called preknadi. It has a similarity to northern Rhone whites, yet despite its rich, fruity nature it has a sense of refinement and balance that keeps the wine from spilling all about your mouth. The floral fruit is organically grown and spends only a brief time in oak to stay fresh and clean. Yellow fruits and red apple and peach notes ride out the finish. It’s the restraint and balance that makes this wine so inviting and food friendly. Serve with a seafood risotto, or lemon-roasted chicken.Tasted: 20 April 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
