Recommended wine: White Wine, Alcoholic Drink, Ingredient, Food Product Category, Wine, Dry White Wine, Red Wine, Drink, Menu Item Type, Moschofilero, Assyrtiko, Agiorgitiko

Gyros works really well with White Wine, Alcoholic Drink, and Ingredient. If you feel like going Greek with your Greek food, assyrtiko and moschofilero are both lovely white wines to pair with chicken, seafood, etc. Agiorgitiko is a full bodied red suitable for roasted meats and lamb. The Librandi Critone with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 14 dollars per bottle.

Librandi Critone

Pale straw-lemon in color, the wine has delicate aromas of green apples and tree fruits complementing undertones of peaches, wildflowers, and a hint of freshly cut grass. Dry and crisp on the palate, this wine shows elegance with layers of flavors that continue to reveal themselves well into the finish.Pair this wine with seafood antipasti, baked fish, seafood-based pasta dishes, salads, and grilled vegetables.Blend: 90% Chardonnay, 10% Sauvignon Blanc
